Distance learning course of 15 lessons

On completion of this course you will receive two qualifications:

Qualification 1:  Beauty Therapist Diploma issued by Stonebridge Associated Colleges, entitling you to use the letters SAC. Dip. (Beauty Therapist)

Qualification 2: ASET Level 3 Beauty Therapist Award

This Course leads to an ASET Level 3 Award certificate for successful learners. That means that it is independently accredited at a level of learning equivalent to level 3 on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) for England, Wales and Northern Ireland (in which GCSEs are at levels 1 and 2 and A levels are at level 3). For more information on this award, click here.

The Award has been designed by the learning provider to meet specific learners' or employers' requirements and as such is not listed as a qualification on NQF. While the duration, content or assessment may vary from similar national qualifications, in accrediting the programme at level 4, ASET attests that its learning outcomes are at an equivalent level to a level 4 national qualification.

ASET is a recognised National Awarding Body.

‘How long you live rests largely in your own hands. So does how well you live, how much vitality you have and how good you will look in twenty years’ time.’ Leslie Kenton, Ageless Ageing - The Natural Way to Stay Young.

The beauty therapist with the correct qualifications will be able to advise clients about skin and body care. Today high standards of technology used in the production of beauty products mean that real improvements can be made. Beauty therapists are ‘redundancy proof’ and always in demand with plenty of opportunity to take up other related therapies. Continuous assessment of all the assignments with tutor support and feedback are provided when assignments are returned to students.
