LOOKS Academy’s Esthetics Clinic is an integral part of the Professional Medical Aesthetics Program. Students practice newly acquired skills (both technical and interpersonal) in supervised clinic sessions that begin at the end of term 1. The Student Clinic provides students with the opportunity to develop and practice their skills through interaction with the general public. The Student Clinic ensures that Professional Spa Therapists are work-ready upon graduation and feel confident enough to start their career.
This 12 week course is designed to provide students with a detailed overview of best management practices for a salon and spa. It introduces topics that range from the technical to the soft skills required for success. Some of the specific topics discussed include financing a new business, designing a successful floor plan, hiring and training staff, and generating business. Detailed technical information such as state and federal laws, licenses, utilities, insurance options, and computer software and hardware are also reviewed in detail.
In this course, it is expected that students will work to achieve a basic understanding of appropriate business practices. Each student will begin the course with different ideas regarding what a successful salon and spa is, but as the course progresses, it is hoped that everyone will learn what actions as a business owner or manager are and are not legal and financially responsible so that they can apply that knowledge to their specific business model.
The major goal of this course is to prepare students to effectively manage a salon and spa. There are many aspects to salon and spa management that require consideration, though not all of the topics covered in this course will apply to every student’s individual needs. The course is designed to provide an overview of the primary management topics that a salon and spa owner or manager may find useful. It is expected that, as needed, individuals will pursue specific areas in greater detail.
