    Hi,
    My name is Yvonne and I am inquiring about teaching beauty therapy for Fetac. I am wondering what the requirements are and how I go about training for this. I am a fully qualified ITEC & CIBTAC therapist with 8 years experience including running my own business.
    I would love to teach beauty as I have such a passion for it and love to share my knowledge with others willing to learn.
    If you could let me know how I go about applying I would very much appreciate it.
    Thank you for your time

    Hi yvonne, you will have to do a train the trainer course in fetac level 6 to become a fetac trainer! There are lots of places for you to get the training you need depending on where you live. Professional Development have courses running in most parts of Ireland. They are based in Blanchardstown, Dublin and you can complete the course within 10 days (full time) as is Baptec but they do the same course over 6 weeks on a part time basis so it depends on how quick you want to get your qualification. Good luck

    If you want to teach in a public college offering FETAC courses than you will need to apply to be registered with the Teaching Council to get a job with any centre/college run by the Education and Training Boards (formerly VECs).

    I think the Teaching Council use the Dept of Ed circular letter issued a number of years ago and that required ITEC, CIBTAc and CIDESCO as well as 4 years post qualification experience but check it out with the Teaching Council.

    Train the Trainer level 6 will not be accepted as a teaching qualification by the ETBs.

    In addition from 1st April 2013 to teach at FE level 5 upwards (the level most PLC college start at) you will also need a recognised Post Graduate Diploma in Further Education. Details of recognised Postgraduate Diplomas are also available from the Teaching Council. FAS training centres are also coming under the remit of the ETBs so the same applies to them.

    Finally be warned there are lay-offs in the public sector (VECs) as the Dept of Education has reduced the pupil;teacher ratio. There are very few jobs available and where there are there are redeployment is taking place from other VECs/ETBs. Alot of experienced teachers are seeking these. In many case the job is only part-time and holidays are not paid e.g. 6 hours per week in some cases. However there may be some part-time night hobby courses available in your local college/centre.

    Private colleges set their own requirements so check with them individually.

    Best of luck
