I studied this course recently and found it to be very interesting, lots of information all easy to understand and printable. The videos were a great add on, easy to follow and understand, showed ways how to do the different types of massages, how to stand and extra information on how to go about adding this to your own business. Contacting the admin department was easy, answered calls very quickly and dealt with the issues straight away. Also a call back to make sure everything was ok. Received certificate within days and downloaded, very good quality. Would highly recommend learning this way!

Pamela Johnstone

This course was easy to read. I could take as long as I needed and go at my own pace and I was surprised to find that this was an accredited course recognised by my employer. It does what it says on the tin.

I would recommend to anybody wanting to gain knowledge in this area, to add to your education section on your CV or even just for fun! The certificate now looks nice in my achievements folder.

I would most definitely enrol in this way of learning again when I am ready to learn another new subject.

Stacey Cowan

I started doing nails as a hobby, and my interest just carried on growing, I never thought that I would end up qualified!

This is an amazing way to turn your hobby into a nice little money maker and boost your own confidence and knowledge in the process.

Amy Armstrong

I’m currently studying the cupcake making & baking course and it is amazing so far. I’m really enjoying it and it has so much helpful information.

It covers everything you need to know and is actually enjoyable reading… I am very pleased I enrolled I would definitely recommend…I’m a mum of 3 aged 5, 2, and 1 and time is challenging most days but this course provides enough time so I can juggle both.

I am excited to start my next module. the course is also worth the non-discounted price. I will be doing more courses after this one.

Nikki Hudson

I am looking to start, at some point, a career in the Painting and Decorating industry either working for an employer or myself.

This was a really interesting and surprisingly in-depth course. A good starting point for me to eventually go on to study on a level 1 Construction course at college that will include Painting and Decorating.

I wasn’t sure how good the course was going to be as it was online but I was definitely surprised at how much information was included. Really helpful for me and something I can look back at. Thank you New Skills Academy.

Eden Kaye

I was pleased to find the course I wanted at such a reasonable price. The system is really easy to use and the information given is clear and precise.

I like the fact you can print each module as I like to make hand written notes when studying. The course has provided me with a better understanding of the construction industry, even with all the reading it kept me interested throughout.

The customer service was prompt and very helpful, and I love that you can take your own time in completing the course.

I look forward to completing new courses in the future, Thank You!
