How do I book a course?

You can check our course dates and book online , phone us on 0121 270 5855 or email info@yourbeautytraining.co.uk to find out about future course dates and availability.

We will discuss any prerequisites for the course with you, and undertake an initial assessment to ensure the course is suitable for you.

Please note, as places for courses are very limited and payment will be required at the time of booking.

How do I pay for my course?

Payment is due at the time of booking your course.

We can take payment by debit/credit card over the phone, cheque or card in person.

If your circumstances prevent you from being able to pay the full amount at the time of booking, we are happy to look at alternative payment plans on a one-to-one basis, however, full payment must be received before the course date. Alternative payment plans are offered entirely at the discretion of Your Beautique Training.

What’s Your Beautique Training’s cancellation policy?

We’re unable to offer refunds if you want to cancel your training course.

However, we recognise that in exceptional circumstances, we would consider offering you a credit note , These decisions are made at the discretion of our customer service team. If medical certification can be provided, the course will be transferred to an additional date.  Any subsequent course cancellation will incur a forfeit of all fees paid.  Your Beautique Training  is under no obligation to offer a refund of any fees paid.

Non- attendance  incurs a cancellation charge of the full course fee.

Although we are unable to offer a refund if you no longer wish to attend your original booking, you can change your booking to a future date. If you have purchased your course at a discounted price you will have to pay the difference to the full course price.   Any re-bookings will incur an additional £50 + vat  re-booking fee.

If monies are transferred for an alternative date, they will be held for up to three months, after this time any unused fees will be forfeited.

Cancellation requests must be submitted in writing by post or email.

How many students will be on my course?

We keep our class sizes small to ensure a quality learning experience and accept a maximum of  twelve students per course.

What should I wear?

Please wear your therapist uniform for all training courses. If you do not have a uniform, please wear smart black trousers and black top.

Your clothes should be smart and professional in appearance but allow you to move freely and comfortably during practical activities.

Please wear flat, black, closed toe shoes and ensure long hair is tied back. We advise you to remove all jewellery before attending courses (small stud earrings and plain wedding bands are acceptable).

What do I need to bring with me?

We provide all products, tools and equipment needed for your course, unless otherwise stated.  Kits are also available to purchase where stated.

You may wish to bring a pen and notepad to make your own notes during the course, though you will be issued with a course manual to refer to both during and after your course.

Our training venue is located near a sandwich shop or if you wish to bring your own food with you there is a fridge available for students use.

What if I can’t provide a model?

You may be required to provide your own models for courses. You will be given notice prior to the course start date. If you cannot arrange your own model we will endeavour to do this for you, please notify us prior to your course.

 

What will my qualification enable me to do?

Your Beautique Training offer BABTAC & Beauty Guild accredited  courses and NVQ’s level 2 and 3 and 4. The courses are designed to provide you with all the theoretical knowledge and practical skills you need to practice professionally within the Beauty Therapy Industry.

Our  courses are accredited by associations including BABTAC, Beauty Guild and NVQ’s are VTCT accredited.

Due to the intensive nature of our courses, and depending on your previous experience within the industry, you may need to practice your treatments after completing your course to enable you to be ‘salon-ready’. Your educator will provide you with one-on-one advice at the completion of your course and help you decide on a plan of action.

What happens if I don’t pass the course?

We would conduct an initial assessment before accepting your course booking and by keeping our class sizes small we can ensure you have the very best chance of successfully completing your course.

If  for any reason your educator/assessor feels your skills or knowledge are not of a high enough standard on the final day of your course, your tutor will create an individual action plan for you and you will be invited back for assessment on a future date and you will be added to the next available course date. There will be no additional charge for this.

What happens after I’ve completed my course?

On successful completion of your course you will be issued with your BABTAC Diploma OR NVQ  Qualification certificate. Certificates are issued within four weeks of the completion date.

Your educator will give you, your individual feedback on completion of your course and help you to plan for your next step, whether that be perfecting the skills you have learnt or learning new skills with further courses.

After you have completed your course, you can contact us for support at any time. Our aim is to help you to be the very best therapist you can be, and that doesn’t stop the moment your course is over.

What is the difference between a NVQ and a Diploma?
