VTCT Level 2 in Facial massage and Skincare

VTCT level 2 award in facial and skincare is a fully accredited and officially recognised beauty qualification that has been specifically designed to develop your practical skills in how to provide facial and skincare.

You will learn key aspects of health and safety in a salon environment promoting client care and communication. The main purpose of this qualification is to develop your skincare skills.

This course is for students who have no previous beauty therapy qualifications/experience, who only want to learn facial and skincare treatments instead of the whole Level 2 Beauty Therapy Diploma.

Throughout this qualification you will develop your knowledge and understanding of relevant anatomy and physiology, health and safety, and client care. You will also develop a range of technical skills in preparing the skin, and applying beauty therapy products and electrical equipment to the skin, using a variety of different techniques. You will also develop interpersonal skills that will assist you to communicate effectively with clients.

Difference between ABT and VTCT

With a vast array of qualifications and options available to you, choosing the right course for yourself can be very confusing. Here is a little insight into the difference between short courses and NVQs.

Most day/short training courses will be accredited by an awarding body such as Professional Beauty, ABT, BABTAC or The Beauty Guild. This means that the training school has been approved based on their course manuals, training qualifications and liability insurance. These will allow you to learn the skills needed to carry out these treatments. These are suitable for anyone wishing to work for themselves at home or as a mobile therapist. There are a few salons that will employ without NVQs but this can be restrictive.

We would strongly recommend that you check with the awarding bodies that the school is still approved. We have to renew it each year!

NVQ/VRQ 

Most Salons specify that a Beauty therapist needs an NVQ at level 2* (min) to work within a salon environment. NVQ/VRQ qualifications are both nationally and internationally recognised certificates. Both types of qualification are fully recognised for insurance and employment within the Beauty industry.

Both are work related and focus on the practical and employment skills needed for the beauty industry.

VTCT or City & Guilds

Both governing bodies are of equal value in the workplace, however we use VTCT because:

  • They are a major awarding body in the UK, the market leader and provider of specialist qualifications in beauty therapy, massage and holistic therapy and nail services.
  • Specialist in this field since 1962

 

If you complete any of our NVQ courses you will be able to gain valuable work experience in this fast moving industry.

This will give you the skills and knowledge to gain a successful career in the beauty industry. All of our teachers remain active therapists in the subjects they deliver and we are sure we can offer you first class training.

About the practical day

You will need to attend for 12 days practical.

You will be shown the routine by the tutor.  You will then need to complete 6 practicals on each machine.  We will arrange the models for you and you will also be a model for another student depending on contraindications and if  needed.

Theory exams will be sat after the practical has been completed and before your assessment day.

Light lunch and refreshments are provided so you do not need to bring anything with you on your practical days.

Once the practical and assignments have been completed you will be given a date for your practical exam.

Practical Exam day:

You will complete 3 different models in front of the assessor and IQA.
