Most further education colleges run beauty therapy courses. What makes Champneys Beauty College stand out is that we offer qualifications from the industry's leading international awarding bodies, CIDESCO, and ITEC. What's more we are the only college within a world renowned spa health spa and we are able to offer guaranteed employment to our diploma graduates within Champneys.

A non refundable deposit of 25% of your course fee is due on acceptance of your place. This secures your place. The balance is due six weeks before commencement of the course (four weeks for weekend and CPD courses).

We also accept instalment payments on all courses. Please contact us for more details. 

Fast Track and Part Time Beauty and New Horizons students who start their training in September take their Level 2 and 3 ITEC examinations in March or May. At this point they are qualified therapists and can start working. 

For Diploma courses two sets of uniform (tunic and trousers) and a college fleece are purchased at the time of paying the course fees. For weekend courses one set of uniform (tunic and trousers) is purchased at the start although you have the option to purchase additional ones and fleeces.
