So I had my interview today to do my level 3 at the college I have just done my level 2 and I have been accepted. Its likely to be 3 days a week in college and 1 day placement. It will cover massage, hot stone massage, electrical facials, body electricals, indian head massage and aromatherapy massage if I recall.
However there is another college up by my mum (an hr and a half away) that does a 1 day a week course on a monday which covers massage, hot stone massage, indian head massage and spray tanning (which i already have). Now I am wondering if level 3 in massage and spray tanning would be enough when applying for jobs which require NVQ level 3 and above? Or will most spas want you to be qualified in electricals? (I personally wouldn't be sad to not cover it - I would be a bit sad to miss out on aromatherapy massage though but not enough to do the longer course if the shorter would still make me employable)
So tempted to apply for the one further away just to give myself more time to work and earn money rather than now when I can only work a friday and saturday and thus am limited on my income. Just not sure if its worth it.
