Time was a worry as the course has a lot of homework, but tutors are understanding and allow flexibility, and the course runs at a good time to suit business and family life. The class is made of 10 students with a complete spread of ages from late teens to 50's, all like-minded individuals who are enthusiastic about the beauty industry from spa to aesthetics. 

The course is affordable and can be funded through Advanced Learner Loans. The tutors are very helpful, insightful and supportive, and the college is a very welcoming environment and well versed in adult education. This is a great course for understanding skin science and management along with laser and IPL.
