New City Salon has opened at New City College's Ardleigh Green campus to offer hands-on experience for hair and beauty students. The salon provides professional training in a real-world environment, ensuring students are prepared for careers in the industry. The launch event was attended by local dignitaries and industry partners, emphasizing the importance of employer engagement. Officials noted the significance of practical experience in complementing academic qualifications, aiming to equip students with essential work-ready behaviors and skills necessary for their future careers.
"NCC regularly engages with employers, and they often tell us that while young people may have the qualifications, they don't always have the work-ready behaviours or real-world experience."
"These commercial salons simulate the world of work and give students hands-on experience with real clients meaning they leave us not just qualified, but fully prepared to thrive in their careers."
