Links to Major Policies and Procedures
Here are links to some of our major policies and procedures. Please note some links will take you to other pages on our Web site.
Correspondence Courses and Distance Learning
We do not offer correspondence courses or distance learning. Most (if not all) NZQA-Registered beauty therapy education providers do not offer correspondence courses or distance learning. Offering correspondence courses in beauty therapy or nail technology would be extremely difficult due to the highly practical nature of many parts of the programmes.
We strongly believe with beauty therapy and associated therapies being mainly practical in nature, achieving an employable practical standard cannot be achieved through correspondence. The only way beauty therapy and associated therapies can be learned to a strong practical standard is through supervision by a tutor.
In Case of Receivership and the Public Trust Account
In the case of receivership, liquidation (involuntary) or the revocation of NZQA Registration and / or Accreditation, your individual Public Trust account protects your paid fees. Individual means your student fee trust account pertains to you and is covered by an agreement between us and Public Trust.
Please see the Public Trust form section of the enrolment page for more information.
Insurance
We suggest that ākonga / students take out health insurance as well as insurance against theft or damage to personal property, in case of sickness, theft, or damage to property while attending the course or on the school grounds. We are not responsible for any damages or theft that may occur on the school grounds or through course-related outings.
International students are required to have adequate medical and travel insurance under the requirements set forth in the Code of Practice.
