Exciting developments have taken place in the NZQA review recently, according to Whangarei Evolution School of Massage director Lorna Clowes.
"Old massage programmes are expiring this year and being replaced by brilliant new programmes which include relaxation, infant and child, sports and onsite chair massage,plus nutrition and other great stuff," she explains.
"This new one-year programme leads to the NZ Diploma in Wellness and Relaxation Massage and gives students such an amazing start to their new massage career. Graduates can work anywhere in the world, on superyachts or cruise ships, or start their own businesses. The earning potential is great. Attendance is only Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday with some home study and only in school term time. Evolution School is the only massage education provider in Northland and is an NZQA Category ONE provider, which means NZQA agree we are very high quality educators."
In addition, a new NZ Certificate in Spa Therapy is starting in February 2018. Lorna says it is a lovely programme for anyone with some experience in massage or beauty and covers treatments, such as wraps and scrubs, hot stones, aromatherapy, reflexology, hydrotherapy and Indian head massage, to name a few.
"Graduates will be able to offer these treatments in their own business or for their employer but they can also work in luxury spas worldwide or on cruise ships. Attendance is only four days a week for nine months and only in term time. Evolution School is the only spa education provider in Northland."
Enrolments are being taken now for the Feb 2018 intake and with only one intake per year, with limited places available, you need to be quick to secure your spot. Student loans and allowances are available for these programmes. There is no age limit - just 16-plus.
