Learning how to take a customer’s wish and make it come true is at the heart of a hair stylist’s mission. In this 48-week diploma program, you’ll quickly learn the skills you need to provide exceptional service so that your client goes home smiling. You’ll be part of a supportive and nurturing environment where you are encouraged to reach your potential as an emerging stylist. Of course, we know it’s difficult to succeed in the fast-paced world of hair styling without a strong foundation in commercial practices. That’s why you’ll take classes like Introduction to Business Processes and Human Relations for the Salon Business so that you understand how marketing, accounting, and client relations can improve your success. You may even decide to follow other graduates and start your own business With the mandatory apprenticeship aspect of the diploma, you’ll be able to decide if you want to find employment in hair salons, spas, or other businesses. Graduates are eligible to register with the Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development as an apprentice in order to complete on-the-job, in-salon training. Completion of the apprenticeship term qualifies graduates to write the Provincial Certificate of Qualification Exam (C of Q) for their Hairstylist Provincial Licence.
