Box Hill Institute is proud to be the first TAFE institute to be affiliated with the International Therapy Examination Council (ITEC), which will allow its students to gain international qualifications.
In an exciting new initiative, graduating Beauty, Make Up, Hairdressing and Barbering students can be assessed by ITEC to gain international recognition of their qualification in more than 39 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe Middle East, North and South America.
Head of Hair and Beauty, Ruth Browne announced that Box Hill Institute had become an ITEC Centre, where an international ITEC examiner would visit to assess candidates’ theoretical knowledge and practical skills.
“ITEC will ensure that applicants meet the international standards of registered countries,” she said.
“We are extremely pleased that Box Hill Institute is the first TAFE in Australia to become an ITEC Centre.
“Having an ITEC qualification is impressive on a CV and of course, opens opportunities for graduating students to work overseas,” Ruth said.
As the largest international examination board in Hairdressing and Beauty, ITEC’s diplomas are widely considered to be the highest professional standing that hairdresser or beauty therapist can hold.
