Many of our students studying this dual diploma obtain industry positions well before they graduate due to our high standards of excellence.

There is a huge shortage of beauty therapists in Australia, and salon owners are particularly looking for therapists who are able to move into supervisor and manager positions.

Industry has talked to us, we have listened!

We have worked with industry and developed this world-class curriculum, combining beauty therapy with essential business expertise to equip students to run a successful business. You will be trained by Australia’s leading beauty therapy educators each with a passion for nurturing each and every student, elevating their self-esteem and giving them skills to make a difference in not only their own life but the lives of others.

Graduating with SHB50121 The Diploma of Beauty Therapy and SHB50216 the Diploma of Salon Management provide the practical skills to be not only an amazing therapist but also have important business knowledge including managing staff, setting goals, customer relations, W.H.S responsibilities to equip you for management positions in your own salon or leading spas.

Both Diplomas are completed simultaneously and completed within 46 weeks. Evening students complete every second Wednesday evening with the specialist Salon Management trainer.

The practical aspects of salon management, leading staff etc, are completed in our student clinic in combination with normal beauty tasks.

Our classes are small to ensure the nurturing and support of each individual student and our first class facilities provide a fully commercial salon and clinic, with private cubicles to ensure all students are workplace ready on graduation.
