Classroom Nail Courses

Nail treatments are hugely popular with clients seeking treatments every 2-3 weeks making it a great area of beauty to train within. Our Accredited training courses allow you to gain competence in providing these popular & in demand treatments.

Highly polished, natural nails and the instant benefits of nail extensions make nail technology a lucrative sector of the industry to work within. Nail treatments typically require maintenance and further treatment every 2-3 weeks allowing you to soon build a regular client base. Nail treatments have developed hugely over the last few years with massive innovation and more choice than ever as to the different nail systems available to ensure there is something to suit every client from classic acrylic nail extensions to gel polish, natural nail services to enhance skin and nails right up to the new Poly Gel now emerging as a must have nail system for any nail technician.

Career Choice

If you would like to work as a Beauty Therapist and you are considering taking a training course then the the first decision you have to make is whether you want to…

Work as Self Employed

If you wish to work as a mobile therapist or offer occasional treatments from home, you will be sufficiently qualified with The Beauty Academy Diploma.

All students (except those on funded routes) receive the Diploma which allows you to gain public liability (beauty) insurance to work with paying clients from home or mobile. It allows you to begin earning straight away, even while working towards a qualification.

If you are already a qualified therapist, you may wish to study The Beauty Academy Diploma courses to refresh your knowledge or acquire new skills.

Work as Employed

If you wish to gain employment in the industry or just want to keep your career options open, we recommend you to consider the Level 2 and Level 3 qualification courses.

Most employers in salons, spas, nail bars and on cruise ships will require therapists to hold a Level 2 and/or Level 3 Qualification. Qualifications demonstrate to employers that the therapist is proficient in their treatments and is committed to high standards in the industry.

If you wish to open your own salon premises or have a permanent treatment room from home, you will also usually require a Qualification to comply with local authority licensing. Students are recommended to contact their local authority before enrolling to establish the exact requirements.

Established 1990: the Original Private Beauty Training School

I have done a few courses at the Cambridge and London venues and loved all of them. Staff is very friendly and professional at the same time which makes it easy to learn the theory and also the techniques. Teachers pay attention to each student and gives honest advises and support. I highly recommend The Beauty Academy for everyone.
