Students can choose where they wish to do their Practical Intensive Workshops in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane. It is important to note that students are expected to practise on each other during these workshops. It is an essential part of the learning experience that students perform practical treatments on each other druing these workshops. This enables them to experience the philosophy of beauty therapy, to feel and understand what is being experienced by customers and to engage in the intimate communication experience between therapist and client. This will always be practised in accordance with industry codes of practice and ethics. A range of assessments are also conducted at the workshops including written assessments. * Students may apply for a deferment for a maximum of 12 months which is subject to college approval. WORK EXPERIENCE All students are required to complete 150 hours of work experience in a commercial salon environment. This will enable students to gain invaluable practical experience and is a mandatory requirement of the qualification. Work experience can be undertaken at any salon; it is not a requirement that work experience be completed at an Ella Baché salon. Please note: Ella Baché salons are independently owned and operated; as such, not all salons can support Stellar Distance Learners with work experience and job placement.
