Work-based Learning ( 1 Article )
Salon Strategies offers a variety of work-based qualifications to unlock the hidden skills in your workforce and help increase your profits.
Why waste time recruiting new staff to fill the skills gaps within your business when you could money and increase your productivity by utilising your staff’s untapped skills?

Work-based qualifications or National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs) can help you by:
- Helping you to recognise your staff’s potential, inspiring them to take an interest in the salon and think creatively about making improvements.
- Increasing staff motivation to boost your business’ productivity and profits.
- Cutting down the need for recruitment and therefore reducing costs through increased staff retention rates.
- Assuring your staff do their jobs to the highest industry standard, so your salon is run as efficiently as possible.
- Reducing accidents in the salon and ensuring your business is working to Health & Safety legislation as all NVQs cover Health & Safety.
- Helping you to build a team that's committed to offering consistent, high quality service and excellent client care so that your clients keep coming back!
NVQs focus on the job roles your staff do in your workplace. They are assessed while doing their job, making sure that you do not lose valuable working time.

The majority of academic subjects have little relevance to your staff’s day to day job roles, what they do show is an understanding of a particular topic covered during a course but not an acute understanding of their job role.

Salon Strategies delivers NVQs in Hairdressing and Customer Service in the UK, France and Italy.
