Qualification Overview

These practical, knowledge-led qualifications have been designed to help beauty therapists enhance their professional skills and competencies by mastering advanced techniques. The aim is to boost employability by expanding the range of treatments they can offer, including: consultation and profiling, body massage, facial electrotherapy, body electrotherapy, epilation, lash lifting and brow lamination, advanced lash extensions, and intimate waxing. The qualifications will allow beauty therapists to build confidence in their practice while collecting evidence in a realistic work setting.

The Diploma and Certificates are intended to recognise individuals seeking the essential professional skills required for employment in the beauty and spa sectors. The Qualifi Level 3 Diploma in Advanced Beauty Therapy and its linked Certificates are ideal for those progressing from a Level 2 Beauty Therapy qualification or from the Level 2 Beauty Therapist apprenticeship.

Learning Outcomes

  1. Health, Safety, and Hygiene Implementation – Learners will apply their advanced knowledge and understanding of health, safety, and hygiene practices by researching relevant legislation, policies, and procedures.
