Licensing 

Licensing in some councils has been in force since 1994

Some councils require a special license for you to conduct beauty treatments, so it’s important that you check your individual council if you are looking to lease a building. 

The responsibility to understand the statutory requirements from the local authority falls on the business owner. This is the same requirement for all business owners, regardless of the sector they operate  https://www.richmond.gov.uk/media/2560/mst_-_guidance.pdfin , this has been in force since 1994. 

.The principle behind Continuing Professional Development is that once an individual has gained their Regulated Qualification/Formal Education in any given subject to meet their statutory obligations under the local authority’s licensing scheme, they must maintain their skills and knowledge by taking part in regular courses  to ensure they are up to date and area aware of any changes within their area of expertise.

Insurance/Accreditation
We do not have insurance options for our students, but we will support with gaining full accreditation with CA COURSE ACCREDITATION, and give advise within our training for various insurers.

It is the purchasers responsibility to check with their current insurer if they cover our courses . We do not offer any refund if a student has not checked with their current insurance prior to training as we are not responsible for insurance
