City & Guilds Diploma

New for 2010 the delivery of the Hairdressing and Beauty Diploma is available to candidates aged 14-16.

The Diploma is designed for learners who are in full time education and want to work towards a vocational qualification along side GCSE’s.

This course will run on a day release basis over 2 year period. The Diploma is made up of many parts to help develop selected knowledge, understanding and skills relevant to the hair and beauty sector, using realistic work experience.

Apprenticeship Training

Apprentices are employed in local salons and will receive a minimum of £95 per week. Attendance to iCOCO Training is on a day release basis, where you will attend our training salon. iCOCO also provides work based apprenticeships where our teachers/trainers/assessors will perform assessments in salon rather than attending our training salon on a day release basis. The programme will result in achievement of the new QCF Diploma (NVQ Level 2/3) Hairdressing qualification.

The Entry to Employment Programme is aimed at the 16-19 age group and is covered over a maximum of 20 weeks. E2E is designed to introduce learners to the Hairdressing industry. The course focus's upon Hairdressing Level 2 units G20 Health & Safety and G8 Shampoo and Condition Hair, and Wider Key Skills (W.W.O and I.O.L.P).This course provides support in locating a suitable employer. Learners progress from this to the Apprentice programme.

EMPLOYERS

We are one of Yorkshire’s independent hairdressing training providers, we are currently working with many salons that put their trust in us to help their apprentices to successfully achieve the new standards of formal QCF Qualification (AWARD, CERTIFICATE, DIPLOMA) . We have two training sites based in Liversedge and Shipley.

We currently provide training for Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield areas.

We recognise that not all salons are the same or need the same when it comes to training. That’s why the training programmes iCOCO offer can be as flexible as the individual salon wants. Many salons want to deliver the practical training themselves in the commercial salon leaving iCOCO to take care of the theory and essential knowledge. Others look to a training provider that does both the practical and theory training – we offer each and every salon the bespoke training package they require for their Apprentice.
