| Description | The goal in developing his program was to make sure that students received the most advanced curriculum while training in a realistic spa environment. To ensure that JCI's training was cutting edge, we teamed up with top medical estheticians, aromatherapists, nail technicians, and massage practitioners.
The success of the Hair Art Design Diploma Program, that is taught with Axis Salons, has proven how valuable client exposure is to develop the necessary skills to actually work in a spa / salon. Accordingly, the JC Institute has built a spa in the school and designed the program so that students start working with clients 3 weeks into the program and then work with clients daily until they graduate. This means that students will have 35 weeks (105 days) of actual client work by the time they graduate from the 41-week program. This is very different from other programs, and very important to spa owners. | | |
