“The best decision I ever made was
to complete a Diploma of Beauty
Therapy as it has opened so many
doors. I now own my own business.
“The aesthetic industry is booming, in fact it
is a multi-billion dollar industry today and I
am so proud to be a part of its growth.
“Teachers also have an enormous impact
on your decision making during this period
and it was reassuring to know that all our
teachers at MSIT had operated their own
businesses in the industry.
“We’re gaining experience from the
experienced.”
