Nadine Dilong On Wednesday, March 15, we flew up to Brisbane as we couldn’t miss The French Beauty Academy’s grand launch event of their new curriculum program: The Future of Beauty.
The French Beauty Academy has partnered with the biggest names in skin and device technologies to co-develop an industry leading and cutting edge skin focused program. This Australian industry first bridges the gap between training and employment, ensuring French graduates are skilled for the beauty jobs of tomorrow.
When speaking with the Academy’s Founder, Luke French, he explained the win-win situation this partnership creates. Students learn vital skills that go beyond facials and traditional beauty treatments, and they get to train on industry-shaping devices and with brands that they will no doubt encounter at future jobs. On the flip side, clinics who are recruiting get to hire qualified therapists who already possess the knowledge they need to work in this competitive and ever-evolving beauty industry. Furthermore, students form relationships with some of Australia’s leading brands, no doubt helping them find their right career path.
Hon Karen Andrews MP officially performed the ribbon cutting ceremony, alongside eleven of the industry’s global leading technology and device CEOs and Managing Directors at the Adelaide Street campus, where students will be trained on and with the latest beauty devices and brands such as Hydrafacial, Emsculpt by BTL and triLift by Lumenis.
“This program is at the leading edge of beauty education training in Australia,” says Managing Director, Luke French. “Each Official Education Partner has been carefully selected for integration into the curriculum based on their industry leading, ground breaking technology, clinical research and united commitment to educating the next generation of beauty professionals,” said French.
Mrs Andrews endorsed French’s comments. “There are such exciting and lucrative opportunities for the women of Australia in this sector. I am delighted to officially open this industry leading program at an institution with a renowned reputation as a quality education provider and one dedicated to ensuring the continual improvement and success of its curriculum and student outcomes. For those students wishing to pursue a trade and a career, this industry is one of phenomenal growth. We are committed to working with industry, and the highest quality vocational providers such as The French to deliver real skills for real jobs.”
The titans of industry sponsoring the program include; Hydrafacial, Emsculpt Body Contouring by BTL, Observ520X Skin Imaging by The Global Beauty Group, Omnilux LED Light Therapy by Device Consulting, triLift Dynamic Muscle Stimulation (DMStTM) by Lumenis, Dermapen4 Collagen Induction Therapy by DermapenWorld & Inskin Cosmedics, and Laser Hair Reduction GMAX Pro Plus by Candela Medical, BBL IPL Skin Rejuvenation by Sciton.
French students gain a highly competitive edge by having access to latest research, advanced skin knowledge and practical experience delivering advanced cosmeceuticals treatments with Dermaceutic Skin Resurfacing Peels by Dermocosmetica, and growing consumer beauty categories such as Clean and Sustainable Beauty with Biologi skincare, and Bi-Directional and Ingestible Beauty with Vida Glow.
The Future of Beauty is delivered within the nationally recognised and accredited SHB50121 Diploma of Beauty and SHB50216 Diploma of Salon Management. This all-encompassing dual qualification arms students with the knowledge, skills and experience required to be an exceptional beauty therapist and important business understandings to know how to manage or open a clinic or salon, breeding the next generation of beauty entrepreneurs.
