    With this qualification work would be undertaken as a skilled beauty therapist in salons, spas and the wider beauty industry.

    The qualification is designed to reflect the role of those who work relatively autonomously. It involves the self-directed application of knowledge and skills with substantial depth in some areas where judgement is required in planning and selecting appropriate equipment, services and techniques.

    Applications involve personal responsibility and autonomy in performing complex technical operations.

    The work reflected in this qualification may include participating in teams and group or team co-ordination.

    Entry requirements: Year 12 (VCE) or equivalent, or mature age.
