The WHY behind our methods...
Our Proven System for Long Term Success!
Step by Step Stages System
By teaching in stages, we allow students to focus on specific groups of techniques, practice them until they can perform them confidently and independently.
Much like music lessons, students learn new aspects every beginning of the week, practice those new techniques throughout the week, and then are tested on those techniques at the end of every week. teaching in stages step by step has proven to develop more confident independent students post graduation.
Mentoring opportunities for our students to mentor other students allows our students the ability to retain all they have learned, gain more confidence in the skills they now know, and also practice training others for the success of their own future endeavours! Did you know more than 50% of Prestige graduates start their own businesses? Knowing how to train staff and work with others is essential to long term success in this industry!
Observation is an important aspect of learning dog grooming. Even advanced grooming seminars are based on observation. Learning how to learn from watching is essential to future career success. Students must leanr to follow direction verbally and by watching as teh industry is constantly evolving and these skills make any student able to adapt quickly and continue learning in any future work environment!
Income Potential
Our system for teaching has proven success with over 2500 graduates to date since 2020 and 90% industry job placement rate reported by our graduates!
