Media Makeup: The curriculum is updated constantly and is currently going through an update with changes to reflect the newest digital requirements of photography, and student portfolios now being kept of disc, photo shop upgrades and the constantly changing prosthetic technology.

Fleurimon: In April 2005, we started the hairstyling school, as we had more and more demands for makeup artists that also could do hairstyles.

Skin Art: For me, it is essential that our curriculum be kept right up to date and in line with the development of materials and techniques used in the field to remain competitive. We offer hands-on experience with the very latest materials and products employed in the techniques of special FX – silicones, gelatine, polyurethane.

The School of Pro Makeup: The Creative and Corrective Makeup Design Curriculum is updated regularly to reflect new technology such as high-definition television. We recently extended the prosthetics program from 7 weeks to 9 to include airbrush for silicone, and we’ve also just launched a part-time airbrush program for straight makeup.

Art & Technology of Makeup College: Our curriculum is updated on an annual basis to include new technology and improve course structure based on student, tutor, and industry feedback. The college recently updated its nationally recognized qualifications in 2004 to meet new standards. This involved maintaining a basic structure that has proved to be successful in training make-up artists, but included updated methods of providing that training and assessment.

Greasepaint: This last year, we updated our curriculum and added two more weeks to our TV, Film & Theatre course; we also added an Airbrushing course.
