Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our courses. Still unsure? Get in touch with us anytime.
Will I receive a certificate after completing a course?
Yes, once you have successfully completed your course, you will be awarded a certificate accredited by IPHM. This certification demonstrates your skills, knowledge, and ability to carry out treatments to industry standards, helping you attract clients and grow your career.
Do you provide starter kits for practice?
Yes. Kits are available on request for specific courses. They’re designed to help you practise your skills at home and build confidence outside of the classroom. While optional, many of our students find them very useful for reinforcing what they learn during training.
How long do the courses last?
The duration of our courses varies depending on the subject. Some can be completed in just half a day, while others may require several days of classroom and at-home learning combined. Each course listing on our website clearly outlines the structure, timings, and what to expect.
Will I get support after I finish my course?
Absolutely. At The Venue Training Academy, our support doesn’t end when you walk out the door. We provide ongoing guidance, advice, and aftercare to help you as you start putting your new skills into practice. Many of our students stay in touch for continued mentorship and career support.
Are your courses accredited?
Yes. All of our courses are fully accredited by the International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine (IPHM). This means that when you complete your training, you’ll hold a qualification that is recognised across the industry, giving you credibility, confidence, and the opportunity to grow your career or business.
Do I need any previous experience to enrol?
No experience is required for most of our beginner courses. We welcome students from all backgrounds, whether you are completely new to beauty and aesthetics or already working in the industry. For advanced courses, we may recommend certain prior knowledge, which will be clearly outlined in the course details.
Can I pay for my course in instalments?
Yes — we believe that financial flexibility should never hold you back from reaching your goals. That’s why we offer our Train Now, Pay Later option, allowing you to spread the cost of your training into manageable instalments while starting your learning straight away.
Where do the courses take place?
Our main training venue is at The Venue Salon in Bournemouth, a professional, fully equipped environment designed to give you a hands-on, realistic learning experience. We occasionally add additional locations, which will be listed on our website when available.
