Carlton Institute

History

We have been providing training and support for over 16 years and have trained in excess of 15,000 students from all over the world but focus on the UK and Ireland.

Advantages of studying here

All our courses are modular, typically 1-5 days, and lead to a diploma or a recognised qualification from NVQ/IHBC/IIHT accredited by VTCT or BABTAC.  Our relationship with our students doesn't finish at the end of a course, we provide ongoing support by phone and email to help students maximise their investment in their performance. We will also be introducing NEW training programmes for all aspects of the management of a spa or salon business. Courses will be designed for a range of specific needs - whether as a sole owner, a department manager, a club or hotel spa, the HR and training team in a multiple or the directors who want to improve performance and achieve a return on the funds invested (ROCE). No investment pays back as fast as training a new skill you can charge for.  All courses are taught by experienced and qualified tutors and lecturers. We employ senior tutors who have operated in or run a spa or a salon with a team and have at least 5 years experience. We use specialists for specific courses – retailers for retailing, marketing experts for marketing but the key disciplines are taught by lecturers with qualifications for teaching spa and beauty therapy. 

Areas of specialisation

We offer a wide range of Beauty, Nail, Holistic and Business courses from our Training Schools in Windsor, Berkshire and Exmouth, Devon
