Hair & Beauty Masterclasses
A Masterclass course (short course) is an intensive study route for gaining either a college certificate or a national qualification with our awarding body (VTCT). The Masterclasses ensure that qualified professional hairdressers and therapists can continue their professional development, up skill and keep up-to-date with the latest developments in their industry. Enthusiasts can even study them as a hobby instead of taking one of our longer part-time courses.
