You will be given the most wonderful training within the
professional Redken range alongside Keracare and Mazani which is delivered as
part of your knowledge and understanding of the diverse products that we use at
Croydon College.
You will have the opportunity to take part in many internal
and external events and competitions which will give you the skills and
competitiveness to ensure you are a step ahead when you’re seeking employment
within what is a competitive industry. You may be nominated for student of the
year which is a very high achievement to have on your CV for future employers.
We compete in World skills and Association of Hairdressers and Therapists which
are national competitions, where we have successfully reached the UK finals in
both. You will also have the chance to attend hairdressing exhibitions and
off-site training sessions to capture a sense of the vibrant and prosperous
industry you have chosen to enter.
You will be given the opportunity to gain work experience
via a work placement one day per week. This experience will enable you to
appreciate the industry and gain invaluable knowledge.
A key distinguishing feature of the college is our links
with employers and the ways in which we incorporate this into your learning.
Employers attend our popular employability events and you can discuss
apprenticeships and progression opportunities in our Employability Hub or in the
Apprenticeship Office.
