The Information We Provide Prospective Students

This story is no longer valid.

The National School of Aesthetics provides a wide range of relevant, high-quality information to prospective, current and graduated students, as well as to members of the public, with regards to our courses and operations.  We do this to ensure you know what is involved in your interaction with us and what we will expect of you during your course of study with us.

We know there might be a lot of information to consider, but we provide this so the most frequently asked questions (FAQs) are answered and expectations are clear.

One of the things Jacqui, Noel and I hear continuously in our day-to-day duties at the school is our information is comprehensive, and many careers advisors, prospective students and their loved ones are impressed by the level of information we supply.  This level of information does not seem to be readily available to people looking at some providers offering similar training; we supply it to make sure students seriously considering this career path are well-informed before they make a choice.

Documents like our course information pack and other printed material can become obsolete within a few years, so we focus primarily on our Web site for conveying information to the public.  Web sites are fluid, meaning they change over time to reflect the needs of everyone involved.

The course information pack or our Web site should be your first port-of-call for information.  The prospectus and other course information are created in such a way whereby links to our Web site are included to direct you to the most up-to-date information.

The Student Handbook is a collection of different policies and procedures relevant to students, as well as other information to help make enrolment and your time here at the school as easy as possible.  Again, this document (as a printed one) can become out-of-date as time goes on, so we provide an electronic downloadable copy on our Web site.

The National School of Aesthetics is also very committed to ensuring sustainability and environmental awareness, so, through this, encourages prospective students and others to consult the Web site over paper-based information.  This saves paper and the resources involved in creating these documents.

We also have provided a frequently asked questions (FAQs) section on our Web site dedicated to general FAQs and also for enrolled students’ FAQs.  The latter can be found on the Students @ NaSA Web site, www.nasa.co.nz/students/

Overall, we want to make sure that you, as a prospective or current student, know what you are getting involved in when you are looking at, or make the commitment to, studying with us.  This is the main reason we supply this information: to make sure you make an informed choice when you decide what subject you want to study and which provider you want to study it with.

As always, if you have any questions about the information we supply, or any other issue relating to the National School of Aesthetics, feel free to contact us during our office hours, and one of us will endeavour to assist you as best as we can.
