Big Stride Key & Basic Skills Training Support See For Yourself
Together

A complete Key Skills and Functional Skills learning package

As you are well aware hairdressing salons have to keep up with the latest trends, styles and techniques. Staying ahead of the competition today not only requires the technical skill and creativity but also financial awareness, good communication skills, product knowledge and an industry understanding.

Learners create their own hypothetical scenarios which help them complete topical industry activities and are set in a context that will enthuse and excite them. They are also mapped and complement the mandatory NVQ units.

Here a few example activities and the occupational units they are linked to:

  • Research products and buy the basics on-line! (H10 Style dress and finish)
  • Find out more about your clients! (G7 Advise and consult with a client)
  • Investigate the ideal client experience G5 give clients a positive impression)
  • My promotions stand (G6 Promote additional products or services to clients)
  • Design a tool to assess client needs (G11 Contribute to the financial...)
  • Write about the latest celebrity trends! (H27 Create a variety of looks using a combination of cutting techniques)

So think about Key Skills sessions, linking to vocational qualifications or adapting the activities to support Functional Skills.
