    Overview

    Prior study is not a prerequisite – you just need a passion for the subject matter!

    This fascinating study pack focuses on the knowledge and techniques you will need to become an effective Human Resources or Personnel Manager, and outlines the simple processes and procedures you need to put in place to get your “team” on side, the business running efficiently, and stay on the right side of the law. It also helps you to define your organisation’s goals and aspirations, and how to communicate them in order to engage and enthuse others so that they too want the same or similar outcomes. This is what leadership is all about, whether at a team or organisational level, and you will learn it here!

    The materials are exhaustive and comprehensive. They teach you to understand the concepts and legalities of recruitment and selection, clearly explains applicable legislation (including the rights and obligations of both employees and employers) and how to manage employee relations. It also gives an insight into performance management, including how to properly record, monitor and review the performance of others, how to understand payroll administration, identify training needs (and then plan and deliver appropriate training) and much, much more.

    Materials

    Requirements

    A reasonable level of literacy is required, but there are no entry restrictions.

    When you have successfully completed your studies you will receive a certificate of achievement from Focus Awards.

    This is a non-regulated qualification which is endorsed by Focus Awards under the FQP scheme. They are not nationally recognised qualifications; on successful completion of your studies you will receive a Focus Awards Certificate of Achievement and a certificate of completion from Distance Learning Plus.

    Focus Awards is regulated as an Awarding Organisation by Ofqual, the qualification regulators for England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

    Non-regulated qualifications endorsed under the FQP scheme are ideal for professionals required to demonstrate commitment to CPD (Continuous Professional Development), and for those wanting to gain specialist knowledge of a particular subject.

    Who is this for?

    Anybody with a reasonable standard of general education will be able to cope with the academic demands. If you can read and write well enough to complete a job application, and have a good grasp of basic maths (add, subtract and divide) you should have no problems. The learning materials are written in simple everyday language and the answers to your assignments will be completed in the same style. In addition to the comprehensive learning materials provided, you will receive a Study Guide to assist you, and, of course, you will have the support of your tutor.

    What will I cover?

    Your studies will cover the areas of study listed above through detailed exploration of the subject matter. You will also receive tasks and prompts for further personal exploration and research to carry out so that you can gauge how much you have learned. There are plenty of examples to help you but personal research is a prerequisite, so be prepared to use your initiative to fully answer the assignments.

    Is it accredited?

    This is a non-regulated qualification endorsed by Focus Awards under the FQP scheme.

    Although the learning materials are comprehensive and informative, we do expect you to carry out your own investigations. After all, if you are not prepared to do your own research, you should be asking yourself if this is the right subject choice for you!

    Your work is not graded; assignments are simply identified as Pass, Fail or Referred. For assignments not passed at first attempt, your tutor will advise on the improvements to be made to obtain a Pass on a reworking. A certificate of achievement will be issued by Focus Awards on successful completion of all the assignments.

    Is this a nationally recognised qualification?

    No, this is a non-regulated qualification which has been endorsed by Focus Awards under their FQP scheme

    What will my studies prepare me for?

    The learning materials and accompanying tasks will help you to develop the necessary knowledge and confidence to successfully complete the tutor marked assignments. The tasks are designed to encourage you to apply your knowledge, and help you to develop relevant research and academic writing skills.

    If I fail an assignment can I retake it?

    Yes, your tutor will ask you to resubmit your assignment and give you some pointers as to where you could improve.

    How do I send in my work?

    You email your assignments one at a time for marking. This enables your tutor to properly assess the standard and style of your work for each section, and give you feedback which will be used on your next assignment; a process of continuous improvement. On obtaining feedback and comment you will either move on to the next assignment or review and rework the one you submitted.

    What do I receive once I enrol?

    You will receive login details to our Online Student Community. Here you will be able to access your course materials, contact your tutor, submit your work, and interact with other learners via the online forums.

    Is there a time limit or any deadlines?

    Your studies should be completed within 12 months, but can be extended for a small fee if your tutor supports your request. As a rough guide, depending on your circumstances and commitment, you can complete your studies in about 100 study hours. There are no other deadlines to meet.

    Is there a word count for my assignments?

    Although a word count is not given for the tutor marked assignments, it is important that you demonstrate to your tutor that you have fully understood the questions; a comprehensive Study Guide is included with your materials. Many students start slowly at first, but your tutor will give guidance to help and encourage you to improve.

    Do I need a computer to complete my studies?

    Yes, you will need access to email and the internet to access your materials, submit assignments and do research. Most students also find word-processing their assignments is much more convenient than writing by hand.

    Are the learning materials paper-based or online?

    All of the learning materials are online. You will receive a login to the online student community when you enrol, where you will be able to access the full set of materials and assessment tasks for your course.

    What made you decide to become a beauty therapist?

    I have always been interested in makeup – my earliest memories of playing with my mum’s lipsticks and powders (although I am sure she was far from impressed to find spilt powder and creams all over her dressing table!)

    I went to college and completed up to level 3 in beauty therapy. At first, I wanted to open my own salon and also considered setting up my own mobile beauty business, but during my studies I had the opportunity to complete a module on special effects makeup.

    I was always amazed by how real things like cuts and bruises looked on TV and in films, so I was really excited to study this. It was after this that I realised that I wanted to focus specifically on this. I undertook some work experience and was really fortunate to become involved in a short-film project and the opportunities have grown from there.

    How much can I expect to earn?

    The starting salary for newly qualified beauty therapists is around £12,000 per year, but as there are many opportunities available for beauty therapists, the salary can depend on where you work, the number of hours, etc. There are also often opportunities to earn additional money through tips and commission from the sale of additional products.

    Salon managers can earn over £20,000 a year.

    How many hours a week would I work?

    Beauty therapists typically work around 30 – 40 hours a week. Those working in salons will often work 9am – 5pm (or similar patterns), Monday – Saturday. However, those with mobile beauty therapy services may also work evenings and Sundays and public holidays.
