Build Your Own Training Academy with Confidence
For many qualified beauticians, teaching becomes the natural next step. Whether you want to mentor others, reduce reliance on treatments, or build a long-term business, becoming a beauty educator allows you to turn experience into opportunity.
About the Level 3 Beauty Educator Award
The Level 3 Beauty Educator Award is a UK-accredited qualification designed for beauty professionals who want to teach others. It covers:
-
Planning and structuring lessons effectively
-
Delivering training in a classroom or practical environment
-
Meeting the specific needs of individual students
This course prepares you to deliver professional, structured training that your students will benefit from.
The Beauty Educator Award is designed specifically for industry professionals who want to teach accredited beauty courses and build their own training academy — without overqualifying or navigating unnecessary barriers.
This qualification enables you to deliver fully accredited beauty training, qualify other professionals, and operate compliantly as an independent educator or academy owner. It provides the professional foundation required to structure courses, assess learners, and issue recognised certification suitable for insurance and employment.
Unlike regulated college pathways, this award is suited to private academies, salons, and independent educators who want flexibility, control, and scalability. It allows you to grow at your own pace — from one-to-one training to small group courses or a full academy model.
The Beauty Educator Award is ideal if you already hold recognised Level 2 or Level 3 beauty qualifications, have practical industry experience, and want to formalise your knowledge into a teaching and training business. It is not intended for delivering NVQ or VTCT regulated qualifications, but it is perfectly aligned with accredited education pathways used by successful private academies across the UK.
Financially, running accredited training can transform how you earn. Many educators charge between £300 and £1,500+ per course, with the ability to deliver the same training multiple times. Over time, this creates income that is no longer tied to treatment hours and supports sustainable business growth.
The course is fully online and self-paced, allowing you to study alongside existing work. You’ll have 12 months to complete, with the flexibility to finish sooner if motivated — some learners complete it in as little as two weeks.
The investment is £333, with Klarna and Clearpay available to support flexible payment.
If your goal is to become a beauty educator and build a professional training academy with clarity and confidence, the Beauty Educator Award provides the correct foundation to do it properly.
