Certificate III in Hairdressing | Diploma / certificate | Health & Well-Being | On Campus | 18 months | Federation University Australia | Australia

Set yourself up for a career creating and styling, surrounded by people in our modern program. Earn while you learn by studying our certificate and completing your apprenticeship alongside it, or you can treat our program as an authentic alternative to an apprenticeship. Whichever option you choose, you'll be mentored by masters of the craft in real salon environments. You'll learn the tricks of the trade including the latest trends to turn you into a stand-out hairdresser. We'll make you business-minded too so you're confident consulting with clients and working as part of a team. Plus, focus on your favourite areas by choosing from our electives like working with hair extensions, planning services for special events and designing beards and moustaches. If you're an apprenticeship alternative student, you'll study for three days each week, which includes two days of intensive technical training and one day of salon work placement in our on-campus salon, Unistyle. Choosing this approach will see you study for 18 months, enjoying in excess of 200 hours of experience in fully operational salon. If you're an apprenticeship student, you'll study on campus for one day each week during term time throughout your three-year apprenticeship. This program is appropriate for a person wishing to gain the standard trade training qualification for hairdressing, which will allow you to work in salons, hotels, cruise ships and resorts.
