Level 2 Diploma for Hair Professionals – Hairdressing
This course can only be completed alongside an apprenticeship which is designed to have you salon floor ready upon completion.
This course is split into three elements…
On-programme qualification
During this time, you will learn all the hairdressing skills required to get you salon ready! This qualification is accredited by VTCT and delivered by experienced hairdressers and qualified assessors and teachers.
If you do not already hold the mandatory level of English and Maths qualifications, you will be required to work towards and gain these during your apprenticeship to be able to move onto the last 2 elements.
Gateway
After you have completed your on-programme qualification you will have some time to plan and prepare for your EPA (End Point Assessment). During this time, you will also be gaining valuable experience by working on the salon floor as a stylist.
EPA (End Point Assessment)
This is a one-day event during which an outside End Point Assessor will assess your skills on a predetermined set of services.
To have a successful outcome from this apprenticeship you must complete and pass all three elements.
Government Funded Qualification
There is no charge to learners!
Note to employers: If your apprentice is under 19 and you are a small employer with under 50 employees, the government will fund 100% of the training costs.
For any Non-Levy Employers: If you do not pay the apprenticeship levy, the government will fund 95% of the apprenticeship and you will be required to pay 5% of the total costs of the apprenticeship directly to us as the training provider.
Entry Requirements
You must be 16 years or older. There are no entry requirements to start this course. However, if you have not achieved your Maths and English GCSE to a grade 4 or above or a level 2 functional skills qualification you will be required to work towards a functional skills qualification at the level you are currently working at. Any learner with Maths and English GCSE to a grade 4 or above or a level 2 functional skills qualification, aren’t required to achieve a qualification but will need to continue to develop their maths and English skills. You must secure a work placement within a hairdressing salon to enable you complete this apprenticeship.
