Learners must have a good general education. It is desirable to have 5 GCSE’s with a grade 4 or equivalent in Math’s and English, however, functional skills are delivered at the college if you don’t achieve these grades.
Our beauty therapy apprenticeship courses are aimed at learners aged 16 and above, admissions take place throughout the year.
We are now interviewing for our Advanced Apprenticeship courses.
Level 3
The final stage of the apprenticeship qualification is an end point assessment, this is an impartial assessment to evaluate whether or not the apprentice has developed the knowledge, skills and behaviours outlined in the apprenticeship standard. The assessment consist of 4 components: Theory exam, Practical exam, professional discussion and a tech demo.
You will graduate with an Advanced Apprenticeship in Beauty Therapy VTCT consisting of Level 3 along with functional skills in Maths and English if required.
You will have gained 2 years of employment experience within the beauty industry, giving you invaluable work experience alongside your qualification.
As well as attending college, you will spend three or four working days in a salon that is suited to you. This invaluable time will allow you to perfect beauty treatments on a wide variety of clients giving you the opportunity to create the foundations and build your very own returning client base.
We have a dedicated Employer Engagement Team who will assist you in securing a placement should you have difficulties.
Once you have secured a placement we will make an appointment to visit your placement, complete a health & safety check whilst completing and signing all the required paperwork.
We will visit the salon every 10-12 weeks to speak to your supervisor to discuss progress, training and any issues that may arise.
We have spent over 40 years tailoring this course to give you the best possible start to your career. Nowhere else will you benefit from the same level of exposure to high-class facilities combined with small tutorial-style teaching and extensive salon experience.

“I owe everything I learned at DSG for making me the therapist I am today, I could have gone to any other local community college but I knew that I would get the best training at DSG and I did! Not only were we taught the treatments and the theory behind it all we were also taught etiquette, professionalism, high standards, client care and simply how to be the best. One of the first rules I learned was that presentation is the key to success and that simple rule has helped me in all aspects of my career.”
