Urban Spas Beauty Therapy Employer Testimonial

November 9th, 2023

I am the CEO and franchisor of a leading Beauty and Dermal Franchise in NSW.

For the past 20 years AABT has been our choice of training providers when looking for staff as their graduates have all the skills and knowledge we are looking for in our employees.

Not only do they have the latest SHB50121 Diploma of Beauty Therapy, but most also hold the SHB50216 Diploma of Salon Management, a definite advantage!

As our salons and clinics are small businesses, a beauty therapist may be called on to run the clinic in unforeseen circumstances.

Many Franchisor owners are also looking for Salon Management trained staff members to actually run or assist in running their business if they are unable to be there full time.

From a small business owner’s point of view , staff having Salon Management qualifications is a must.

Our clinics like many others throughout Australia, are focussing more and more on treatments that provide real results for clients.

Dermal treatments including Hydra dermabrasion treatments, cosmeceutical peeling treatments, LED Light Therapy, IPL Skin rejuvenation and Laser or IPL hair reduction are now all mainstream treatments in our clinics so qualifications in these modalities are also a must.

Another important reason AABT graduates are our first choice when hiring staff is they have all completed 400 -500 hours of practice on paying clients in the Academy’s student clinic and under the watchful eye of their trainer.

This type of clinic experience is essential to ensure they are employable and can handle the day to day salon environment from day one.

Excellent training , high standards of grooming, great work ethic and a love for the industry is what sets AABT students apart .

We are so impressed with the standards of AABT students we offer outstanding students part time job opportunities often half – way through their course, whilst they complete their training.
