When considering a career in
Beauty Therapy it is extremely
important to consider the
qualifications that are needed in
order to become a professional
Beauty Therapist.
The Government are putting more emphasis
now on vocational education and the
importance of gaining a recognised
qualification. More than ever before, well
trained and well qualified therapists are in
demand in the workplace.

Vocational Qualifications (NVQs) and along with
International Awards and has three subsidiary
awarding bodies;

VTCT is the major awarding body in th UK for
S/NVQs in Beauty Therapy and has been
established for 40 years.

Upon successful completion of the course a VTCT diploma is awarded entitling the therapist to apply for insurance and membership to any of the following professional bodies;
• The Federation of Holistice Therapists.

Cosmetology.

Equipment
The Academy provides most equipment needed
such as Towels, Dermalogica Skin Care, Makeup,
Wax pots etc . . . However the students will

to purchase a uniform. Class sizes are kept to
a maximum of ten students to ensure intensive
personal tuition.
