Hi ladies I found this course close by to me. Do you ladies think it is worth it and also does it allow me to work in salon.

In all honesty, as a salon owner, I would require minimum of a level 2 nvq/vrq or ideally level 3 so I know a therapist is qualified to a certain level in all areas. Lots of short courses can be hard to insure. Most 'good' training courses have awarding bodies.

This course would possibly be okay if you were working from home but even then you would need to contact insurance companies to be positive that is recognised. When I think of the training I did in college for the facial element, alongside a full a and p course, this doesn't seem a lot.

Sorry

Hiya,
I've been looking into facial courses too and wanting to do an NVQ level 2. I found this site really helpful. Under the approved centres, it gives you training centres close to your location. I'm doing the 2 day diploma and advancing it to nvq level 2 with the same company for a small fee.
