We were speaking this morning prior to my hair cut. I have been using Centre of Excellence for my hair cuts for 25 years now and in that time can I can`t speak highly enough of all the girls and the odd male who have cut my hair. I also see in these people that they have very good people skills. There is an old saying the first impression is a lasting one. In my time coming to the Centre Of Excellence the people have has a wide range of ages. From the first owners to current I congratulate you all and I enjoy coming back each time. I would like to thank Ange for all the work she dose in training and sometimes having to rescue one of the girls if things take to long. Keep up the good work.Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

My name is Sharon Trigg I studied at the Centre of Excellence in 2014, Hairdressing was a lifelong dream for me and the COE provided me with the flexibility I needed to complete my certificate as I have young children. The COE gave me the experience in a salon setting which has now benefited me as I am now working in the industry. Not only did I gain experience in a salon but I gained some lifelong friends along the way as the COE has a friendly atmosphere which made stepping back into the classroom after 20 years more settling. I would recommend the COE to anyone that wants a career change or to just update their skills. Thankyou Centre of Excellence.

I started at COE after Jodie the beauty teacher recommended it to me at work. I enrolled in a diploma of beauty therapy and completed it with certificate IV in beauty therapy. I fell pregnant really soon into my course and they were so flexible and helpful. They let me drop the diploma and helped me pick up extra salon hours to get finished in time. I loved all my teachers whilst studying and I found it to be a really relaxed friendly environment. Since finishing at COE in July 2014 and having my baby a month later I moved to Gippsland and started up freelancing as a makeup artist for myself at home and around the local area. I would love to expand and one day hope to open up a salon. I would recommend COE to anyone who is interested in a career in the beauty industry because you don’t feel like your at school it’s a professional and friendly environment, I learnt so much so quickly and have made so many life long friends through it. It’s comforting knowing I have found something I love doing.
