Beauty Training Package Products: Draft 2 Validation

SkillsIQ, under the direction of the Personal Services Industry Reference Committee (IRC) and the Skin Therapy and Cosmetic Tattooing Technical Advisory Committees (TACs), sought feedback on Draft 2 SHB Beauty Training Package Products, including updates to six existing Qualifications and their associated Units of Competency. In addition, two new Qualifications have been developed in the areas of Skin Therapy and Cosmetic Tattooing.

Background

A Case for Change was submitted by SkillsIQ, under the direction of the Personal Services IRC, to the Australian Industry and Skills Committee (AISC) seeking to undertake an update of the nationally recognised Beauty Training Package Products included in the SHB Hairdressing and Beauty Services Training Package. This Case for Change was subsequently approved by the AISC.

The following six draft Qualifications and associated Units of Competency in the SHB Beauty Training Package have therefore been approved by the AISC to be updated: 

• SHB20116 Certificate II in Retail Cosmetics
• SHB30215 Certificate III in Make-Up
• SHB30115 Certificate III in Beauty Services
• SHB30320 Certification III in Nail Technology 
• SHB40115 Certificate IV in Beauty Therapy
• SHB50115 Diploma of Beauty Therapy.

In addition to the update of existing SHB Training Package Products, two new Qualifications are proposed:

• SHB50319 Diploma of Cosmetic Tattooing
• SHB60219 Advanced Diploma of Skin Therapy.
