Words from the CEO

We have been training Fiji’s hairdressers, barbers and beauty therapists since 2002.

Pauline Campbell had been running salons and spas since 1982, training her own staff through apprenticeships. In 2002 she turned that into a school, in Lautoka. It is still a family business, now with campuses in Lautoka and Suva, and it is still built on the same idea: you learn this trade by doing it, on real clients, under someone who has done it for years.

We are registered and recognised by the Higher Education Commission Fiji (Registration RGN 0019/10, Recognition RCN 0052/10), and we are a Pivot Point International member school, so our curriculum and the LAB online learning platform are the same ones used in member schools around the world.

We are an approved TSLS provider, and FNPF education withdrawals are accepted for our courses.
