Skincare brand Thémaé has partnered with the Françoise Morice beauty school in Paris to create The International Spa Academy by Thémaé, which will start to offer spa management training as of January 2015.
The course will last 10 weeks and is aimed at graduated beauticians with two years’ experience as a massage therapist. Participants will learn techniques signature to the Thémaé brand and will attend classes on sales and marketing techniques, guest expectations and luxury branding.
Students will be taught practical skills at the Thémaé Spa in Paris and then targeted theoretical training – about sales, market innovations and marketing techniques – will take place at the Françoise Morice beauty school.
The programme includes modules in French and English and aims to attract graduates who want to move to a position of responsibility in a high-end spa or work abroad in the wellness industry.
At the end of the course, successful participants will be awarded a Thémaé graduation diploma.
CEO and co-founder of Thémaé, Bertrand Thiery, said Thémaé is offering job opportunities to its graduates. “The goal is to send the resumés of successful participants to our partners all around the world – and to eventually start a website where we will post all of our graduates’ qualifications for our partner spas to choose from directly,” Thiery told Spa Opportunities.
Prospective students can apply via the skincare company’s website or that of the Françoise Morice beauty school.
