VTCT Level 1 Award in Themed Face Painting
To gain your National Occupational Standards (NOS) Level 1 Award in Themed Face Painting you will need to undertake a couple of practical assessments (generally a butterfly and a tiger design), complete a knowledge workbook and build a small portfolio of your face painting evidence. You will need to attend a 3-4 hour session in our training studio in Southampton to take your assessments in the presence of an assessor and you will be required to bring along a model to work on. The next batch of dates are listed below.
We are also able to assess you remotely through video, Skype and email should you live more than 75 miles away from our training studio in Southampton SO45 2LF. A mutually agreed date can be arranged.
Entry Requirements - Mimicks Beginners or Advanced Face Painting training, or similar training from a reputable training provider, or a minimum of 2 years working in the industry.
Assessment Cost: £110 plus £16 VTCT lifetime registration.
Enhance Your Business Profile
Whist it is not necessary to have a qualification in face painting to provide the service, it will certainly enhance the profile of your business activities and any marketing that you may do, which in turn will lead to business growth and money in the bank.
Face Painting is a competitive industry and this qualification will provide you with a more professional edge over the budget painters that are out there. Both Ashlea and I have the Level 3 Diploma in Theatrical and Media Makeup which over the years (especially those early ones) played an important part in our advertising and promotion and also enabled us to set our prices to the very high-end.
To me, this qualification is a no-brainer for such a small fee of £110.
