BOOKINGS

To secure a place on a course you must pay a non-refundable deposit, which is stated on this website page. These fees are non-refundable and non-transferable. The remainder of the balance must be made in full on the first day of the course prior to the start time.

If you do not pay any balance in full before the course start time, your booking will be deemed cancelled and you will forfeit your deposit and you will not be able to sit in the session.

​

If you can’t make your fully paid booked course date due to any last-minute reasons and want to move it to the next available course date this will incur 25% of the original course cost to cover the loss of work to a tutor, company, models and an administration fee.

(No offers previously or on now will be taken into account.)

​

If you leave (or miss) a course prior to its completion, you will forfeit all sums paid to us.

If you go over any contractual end dates for multiple day courses, you will either occur additional exam fees and forfeit completion and certification including all sums paid to us.

​

Please note that your kit may not be able to be given to you on the day of the course if booking within 14 days of the course start date, but will be sent out to learners as soon as possible after the course, usually within 14 working days. (This will not affect your training whilst on the course.)

​

Kits that come free with our courses are the same products/equipment that we use in the Academy, it is your personal choice if you choose to use it or you go on to purchase another brand/equipment.

Some qualifications have to be paid in full before being registered for the course, this is stated on the webpage.

​

Derma Beauty Clinic is not responsible for any travel or accommodation expenses that learners may incur due to attending or a cancellation of a course.


The academy will not offer any refund for cancellations outside our control, including adverse weather conditions, flooding or such like – the next available date will be offered.

1. DOCUMENTS AND COURSE CONTENT

 

A minimum of two learners is required to run a course unless one-to-one tuition is being offered, or at the Director’s discretion.

​

The number of hours stated for how long the course will take to complete is a guideline only. The actual time a course will end will depend on class size and the speed that which learning takes place.

​

Derma Beauty Clinic course notes and training cannot be relied upon for legal interpretation. The Academy accepts no responsibility for the actions of clients, or those of other people reading the course notes, or responsibility for any loss incurred through the use of relying on the course content.

​

Derma Beauty Clinic reserves the rights to its design, text, images, and materials used, including its website. Use is not permitted and must not be copied in any way.

​

Derma Beauty Clinic reserves the right to alter: course dates, venues, course content, materials, tutors, and course requirements at any time without liability and with only a minimum of 24 hours prior notice. In the event of a cancellation where alternatives cannot be provided, in respect of that course, a full refund will be offered.

​

Derma Beauty Clinic will always aim to provide all kits for learners on the day of the course but, if in unforeseeable circumstances that this may not be able to happen, the academy cannot be held responsible. In such circumstances, we will aim to have any missing items sent out to students as soon as possible after the course. Please allow up to 14 working days to receive your missing items.

​

If a learner does not meet the required standards to successfully complete the criteria to safely complete the treatment by the tutor’s recommendations, they shall be invited back to join the next class of the same subject free of charge, on the first occasion only.

​

Case studies must be completed within specified times given on the course or stated in the course book, otherwise, you will not receive your full certification and re-admission and cost of the course will be required. We aim to have case studies marked with feedback within 21 days.

​

Paying for and/or attending a course fully does not guarantee a qualification, award, diploma, or certificate of achievement. Certificates of achievement are gained by the successful fulfilment of the criteria set out by the various awarding bodies. The decision of the Managing Director is final in all cases.

​

Even though Derma Beauty Clinic tries to find every single area to cover during practical training sessions for its learners, it is sometimes hard to meet these needs due to the individual model requirements and capabilities. We cannot guarantee we will cover every area, but we can guarantee any areas missed will be discussed in theory or practical, or feel free to send case studies or join the next course for practice on the next available course date.

​

In order for the learner to gain their certificate they must fully complete any theory work and or assignments, practical assessments, case studies, revisions and pass the exams by the specified course end date.

(Start and end date will be specified on the learner’s booking confirmation)


DT will take NO Excuses whatsoever as to why you require a change of these rules.

​

If models are required on our training days we will do our best to provide a variety of models but sometimes due to circumstances beyond our control, this is not always possible. If this is the case on your course date and the course can’t be completed with the models on the day. You will be issued with an attended certificate for the day and then given the option of coming back on the next course date to fulfil your model case studies or alternately you can do treatment and send us evidence of the case via photographs and your tutor will assess and issue your certificate.

​

2. SALONS RULES
