FAQ

What is the difference between distance learning, live courses and face 2 face?

Live courses are completed by using a mixture of online material through our portal and a live practical webinar with one of our highly skilled tutors. With a maximum of 6 people during the session, we’ll be using zoom as a conferencing tool to perform the virtual webinar.

Distance Learning you will be provided online access to our online portal, here you will have access to training video’s, pdf and assessments but you will NOT have the live tutor session.  The entire course is completed online.

Face to Face you will attend one of your training schools in the south-east for your practical day – click here to see our face to face courses

Which training method is right for me?

This entirely depends on your situation. We offer three methods as a company:

1. Face to Face in one of our beauty in london schools (click here to see our face to face courses)
2. Distance learning
3. Live Courses

All with their own pros and cons, but as a company, we feel we need to offer our customers the flexibility of all three.

* NVQ upgrades not available through a virtual platform, you can upgrade and complete your home study but will need to attend class-based assessments when the school reopens

What’s the difference between a diploma and an NVQ/VRQ qualification?

The really depends on what you’re looking to do, if you’re looking to treat friends, go mobile or run your business from home then we’d recommend a diploma by the Beauty Guild. However, if you were looking to work in a Salon or Spa most would require you to have an NVQ/VRQ qualification.

If you decide on the NVQ/VRQ qualification you’ll also be required to attend an additional day for assessment, further to this you’ll automatically receive a diploma qualification. More information will be given to you during your practical day at the School. Assessments are only available at islington .

The upgrade will cost £160per treatment for example Manicure £160Pedicure £160. Cost for other upgrades £230each for Full Body Massage, Microdermabrasion, Reflexology Eyelash Extensions, Epilation and Facial/Body Electrotherapy, and is available during checkout. NO VRQ Upgrade available for Lash Lifting/ Quick Dip Acrylic/ Defined Brows/Brow Lamination.

Can I upgrade my diploma to an NVQ at a later date?

Yes, you’ll have the option to do this. You’ll have to pay the additional fee (see above) for the upgrade, and we’ll then provide you with all the additional material for your NVQ qualification. We’ll then schedule your assessment day at the school.
