LIFE BEFORE A-Training
If you're reading this, it's likely you are fed up with the following...
As legislation approaches, many practitioners are anxious about their current qualifications not being valid or up to standard. They fear being part of the stampede later – facing long waitlists, lost clients, or even being forced to stop working.
Many have already trained elsewhere – and are now discovering it wasn’t enough. In some cases, they’re being told they need to retrain entirely to meet legal and insurable standards. This leads to frustration, lost time, and wasted money.
The aesthetics industry is flooded with providers, but very few offer regulated, insurable, and nationally recognised qualifications. People are overwhelmed and don’t know what’s legitimate – and they’re searching for a trusted authority to guide them.
