hi there ive been reading your threads about accredited training schools and would like to point out my experience.
i booked for a course in aug 08 with a training school that had just been set up in a salon on a night. it was doing acrylic nails. i attended the 5 week course and passed.
i waited for my cert to come and it never did. so i rang the lady in question and she said she posted it. at xmas i recieved a letter saying their was a envelope with not enough postege on at the post office so ii went down and they said they posted it back out as they were to busy. still no cert came. i kept ringing and asking her and she kept saying its been posted out she said she would ring them to obtain another.
after a few more months of unanswered calls etc i managed to catch her on the fri and she said to come and collect it on the mon mmm i thought thats a bit quick. so went to pick it up and what a shock i got a pink peice of card what she obviously had drawn up herself just saying that i had attended a 5 wk nail extension course with **** training.
i knew the course wasnt accredited as such but the certificate of attendance which i understood was still to come from an awarding body. I think she has just printed that off to fob me off as i suspect she would probably have to pay for another.
I rang my insurance company and they said it should be fine to use this as long as i did attend the training. mm im still not convinced so im going to email them a copy and see what they think.
I paid this women £200 for this peice of rubbish so you do have to do your homework on where to train. but im not letting this drop and want my original one. anyone got any advice would be great thanks xx:irked:
