I highly recommend Demi International as a training facility for beauty therapy. The Toowoomba staff, Ali and Nikki, are incredible trainers and industry professionals. Their knowledge and skills from being in the industry for many years are absolutely invaluable and made the learning experience more informative and useful. By Ali encouraging me to continually practice the skills I had learnt each week, I gained confidence with my skills which led me to securing employment in a leading salon half way through my qualification.
I have enjoyed my time at Demi International. I started my diploma of beauty therapy at another school on the Sunshine Coast and felt as if I was going around in circles and not learning anything. I made the decision to move to Demi International mid way through the year to finish my diploma and it was the best decision I made for myself. I would recommend anyone of any age to study with Demi International.
