Beauty Courses

There’s a diverse range of beauty courses to suit different goals, experience levels, and career paths. If you’re drawn to skincare, makeup, lash and brow treatments, or nail technology, you’ll find a course that fits. Courses you can choose from include:

• Certificate IV in Beauty Therapy
• Makeup Artistry Bundle
• Eyelash Extension Course
• Nail Technology & Artistry
• Complete Lash & Brow Mastery
• Beauty Therapy & Makeup

The right course depends on your career goals and experience. Beginners can consider the Certificate IV in Beauty Therapy, which covers theory and practical skills. For specialised skills, a focused course in makeup, lashes, brows, or nails may suit you better. Use our navigator tool to find your ideal course.

No prior experience is needed for most courses. They’re designed to take you from a complete beginner to job-ready, with expert support and hands-on practise throughout. If you already have some experience in beauty salons or professional beauty services, there are also specialised beauty courses to help you sharpen your skills and take the next step in your beauty career.
