I booked with the Beauty Academy to do an NVQ Level 2 in nail services and although I thought the teaching was excellent and the tutors were very knowledgable, I was not ever told by the Beauty Academy that although I did my training in Leeds (which is where I live) the assessment days would be in Birmingham or London. There would be 3 assessment days and after paying £1000 for the course who then could afford to take 3 days off work each day paying for fuel to either Birmingham or London and also taking a model with you each day who may also have to take the days off work? I'm very disappointed with the Beauty Academy and would never book a course with them again or recommend them to anyone.
