REVIEWS WE HAVE RECEIVED …
“I found this course incredibly insightful and important. I will be using everything I learnt in this course on a daily basis at the clinic I work at. I enjoyed the practical tools provided in the programme that I can use on a daily basis at work to ensure the safety of my customers. I will be implementing the knowledge I learnt from the course into the way I practice as a laser technician. I will always make sure my customers have had their skin checked by a specialist before treating them. ”
“I’ve been working in the Beauty and Skin Therapy Industry for over 20 years and I am always learning and striving to work at the highest level of professionalism in my scope of practice. Over the years I have completed advanced skin analysis diplomas and extensive training on skin conditions and disorders; this programme has been fantastic to follow, extremely informative and I’ve gained even more knowledge to further educate my clients, friends and family. Thank you.”
“Love it. Simple. Well informed, great summaries. Well illustrated. I am glad I did this course as it gave me a better understanding and insight in my scope of practice to deliver safe and appropriate treatments to clients. I use my knowledge to inform clients as well to make an informed decision. Highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to understand skin lesions and are offering any skin lesions service to clients.”
“I did very much enjoy this course.
I’ve taken a lot away from it.
One thing being that, instead of taking a client’s word that they have had a lesion checked by a specialist, we will now require written clearance to treat from the specialist.
I think it’s a very important course for all in our line of work, and it should be compulsory.
”
“I have more understanding of the evolutionary history of the skin and how it relates to the development of skin conditions and diseases. Overall this course is highly recommended for anyone interested in dermatology, oncology or evolutionary biology of skin. I have more confidence and gained more knowledge about skin that I can share with my friends and family with confidence. Thanks heaps AAA+++”
