I want to take on a Beauty Therapy Apprentice
An Apprenticeship combines ‘on the job’ training provided by you, the salon. You employ the apprentice, whose formal education and qualification is being undertaken with an “Apprenticeship Approved Provider” – in this case, the Ella Baché College of Skin and Beauty Therapy.
A Beauty Therapy Apprentice will complete their apprenticeship with a Certificate IV in Beauty Therapy over a three (3) year period.
The Ella Baché College is a NSW “Apprenticeship Approved Provider” for salons located in
Sydney, Illawarra & Newcastle areas. Once you Find an Apprentice
Once you find an apprentice you need to contact your local Australian Apprenticeships Centre, such as Australian Business Limited Apprenticeship Centre (ABL) on 1300 652 236. Apprenticeship Centres provide a one-stop-shop for employers seeking to take on an Apprentice. They will visit you and help you and the apprentice with all the paperwork.
Australian Apprenticeships Centres are located at over 340 sites throughout Australia. You can find a centre near you by visiting
www.australianapprenticeships.gov.au Existing Apprentices
If you already have an existing apprentice they can transfer at anytime from their current apprenticeship approved provider, such as TAFE, to the Ella Baché College at no cost or penalty to you or the apprentice.
How does the Ella Baché College of Skin and Beauty Therapy deliver our Apprenticeship Training?
The Ella Baché College provides apprentices“block training’ in our classroom environment. This is designed to provide you and the apprentice as much flexibility as possible in delivering ‘on the job’ training.
We use a combination of ‘home based theory learning’, also known as correspondence or distance education, with homework & assignments which the Apprentice sends into the College, and a series of four day ‘practical training blocks’ held at our North Sydney campus. All apprentices are required to attend five of these blocks throughout their apprenticeship. This is instead of having to attend their formal training on a weekly or fortnightly basis.
Additionally we also hold several workshops which our apprentices are invited to attend. These include Ella Baché Product & Treatment Training workshops, Industry guest speakers, Complimentary Therapy workshops, including Laser, Hot Stone Therapy and Reflexology to name a few.
