This is known as Accredited Prior Learning: If you have passed an ITEC or CIBTAC module (or equivalent) you will not have to re-sit that exam again i.e. if you have completed Holistic Massage and have passed your exams in Unit 1 (A&P) and Unit 22 (Professional Conduct & Business Awareness) then when you join our Reflexology Course you will not need to re-sit those modules and you can concentrate solely on studying and passing Unit 4 (Reflexology Practical & Theory).
Definitely not. You will need your family and friends around you to model for all the amazing treatments you are going to learn so you can practice as much as possible. You will probably purchase a portable couch to work on and you will need space at home to set this up. Student flats in Dublin or Galway don’t come with a spare room that can be turned into your beauty room at the click of a switch. The cost of renting and living in Dublin or Galway is extremely expensive, save it for when you need to print an assignment and have no ink or need a new pot of wax to practice.
