This will test your understanding of both the theory and practical sides of the course. The exam is open book, but we do expect our students to achieve 100%. We will not fail you. If we are not happy with any answers, we will simply get you to answer again until you get it right.

Our Certificate is legal and valid for use anywhere in UK and also many other countries in the world to either work in a salon, start your own business or enhance your skills.

If you are outside of UK, you will need to check locally to see if any licensing requirements are in force or more formal qualifications are required. This is the student responsibility.  We have students all over the world.

Our courses are fully accredited with certificate but we suggest in all cases you check with your insurance provider to ensure you are covered. For online only courses - insurance is available from Radius Insurance, and we have confirmation that ABT INSYNC INSURANCE, DIRECT LINE, WESTMINSTER & BALENS are acceptable too in the UK, as we are fully recognized & accredited.

Please note that we can only mention the criteria of our own courses, there are non accredited online courses - that are not insurable, in the market place. This is not the case with our courses

This is all explained in the course. You will be required to source models so that you can reach your minimum practical requirements. Models can be family and friends, friends of friends etc.

We suggest initially you try and get models who have perhaps been to a professional salon for the service you are practicing on them, so they can give you some comparative feedback, but you will know by the end result whether you have performed a service correctly.
