Accredited Facials Training in Aberdeen

The GTi Facial Treatment Course provided by Sanctuary Training Academy, is accredited by the Guild of Beauty Therapy, and consists of two elements.

Theory

Upon receiving your activation e-mail from us, you first proceed to completing the theory online, and you will have the opportunity to watch videos, giving you a chance to practice at home.

Practical

When you have completed your modules online, we arrange your training day.  We are flexible for practical days, and don’t always have set days.  We understand that your need is sometimes not compatible with set days.  Even if you are the only student, the course will still run.

All students are provided with a PDF manual by the Guild of Beauty Therapy, to use as a reference.

In the unlikely event you do not reach the required standard, then an additional practical training session will be available at no extra charge, although you may be required to fit in with another training day.

If you do not have Professional Standards for Therapists from the Guild of Beauty Therapy, you would be required to complete this before beginning your Facial Treatment modules.  Please ask for more details.

As part of your practical training day, you may receive a treatment, as well as giving one, if you are completing the course as part of a group.  If you have sensitive skin, an infection or allergies, please notify us as soon as possible.

Expectations on the day

We have a dedicated training therapy room, which is used for most of our practical sessions.  Please wear dark clothing.  Comfortable clothes are a necessity.  Clothes with tight waistbands can be uncomfortable when you perform lengthy treatments while sitting down.  If you don’t own salon wear, dark clothes are more likely to hide any potential stains you may pick up while performing a treatment.

Tea, Coffee and water is provided.  Please take along a packed lunch.  Don’t worry if you forget, as there are shops close by.  We also have a microwave and a kettle, and you are welcome to use the staff room to eat your lunch.

All equipment and products needed to complete the course are provided.

  • Long hair should be tied back.
  • Comfortable shoes must be worn.
  • Minimal jewellery should be worn.
  • Socks or tights should be worn.

Facial Course in Aberdeen

You don’t have to look any further to find an accredited facial treatments course in Aberdeen.

Here at the Sanctuary Training Academy, for this course, you complete your modules online, which means you’ve done all the theory work before you come to me.

It means that our practical time, is spend doing what we need to do, which is the hands on experience.  We’ll still talk about techniques and client expectations, as well as safety as part of the course.

Book your course with us, then we’ll send you details to begin your online training.  When you have your practical code, then we’ll book you in for your practical training.

On successful completion of your practical day, we’ll amend your details to passed for the practical, which will allow you to get insurance to carry out facials on members of the public.

This is a beginners course, as you do not need to have any previous training to embark on a whole new career in facials.

Next to relaxation massage, a facial is one of the best things a beautician can provide.  As well as thoroughly allowing your client to lie back and enjoy a treatment, it allows them to prepare for the rest of their day.  Clients tend to know what they want when they arrive, even if it’s just a full pamper, where they can lie in blissful peace, while the therapist treats their face to some tlc.
