Frequently asked questions

Entry requirements

We assess every applicant on their potential, not just their paperwork. A Level 2 Beauty Therapy qualification is preferable but not essential — equivalent industry experience or transferable skills can be just as valuable. Applicants should be aged 19+ on the first day of the course. Access to a laptop or tablet is preferable, so you can complete your enrolment online before you start. Get in touch for a friendly chat about your background.

How long is the course?

20 weeks of one college session per week. Live-client work runs throughout the course, supported by practical observation on real clients, written assignments, online theory exams set by VTCT Skills, and a portfolio of evidence built across all units.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. Pay in full by card or bank transfer, or spread the cost — in-house instalments (no interest, no credit check), interest-free splits via Clearpay or PayPal Pay in 3, or flexible monthly plans through Payl8r.

Are your courses accredited?

Yes. This is a VTCT-accredited Level 2 Diploma in Beauty Specialist Techniques, delivered at our centre in Warrington.

What career support do you provide?

You’ll graduate as a senior beauty therapist able to work in clinical-tier salons, day spas, hotel spas, or run your own mobile or salon-based business. The Level 3 is also the prerequisite for our Level 4 Advanced Beauty Therapy progression and unlocks aesthetics-tier insurance.

Do I need my own kit?

No — all the equipment and products you need are provided in-house, so there’s nothing to buy to get started. It’s preferable to have access to a laptop or tablet, so you can complete your enrolment online before you start.
