Grooming School
Our courses are designed to suit everybody. From a 28 day Open College
Level 3 Diploma in Dog Grooming to short 1 and 2 day Pet Grooming, and
Canine First Aid Courses. We cater for novices wanting some confidence to
those seeking a career at the highest standard in a lucrative industry. We also
work closely with existing groomers who are interested in gaining a
nationally recognised qualification.
Level 3 Diploma In Dog Grooming
The course is delivered over 28 days practical training with approximately 5
days of home study.
We are proud to have developed this qualification in conjunction with Open
College Network West Midlands. The qualification is regulated by Ofqual and
is recognised in the UK’s national education system at level 3 which is the
equivalent of A level learning. Over the period of 28 days at Caliway Training
School students will groom a minimum of 10 different breeds in a minimum of
15 different styles but often many more.
There are no pre-requisites to starting the course, meaning you can join at
level 3 without having completed a lower level (level 2) course first which can
be a huge cost saving to students.
Students will be trained in practical skills such as bathing, scissoring,
clippering, nail trimming, ear plucking and the qualification course includes
hand-stripping.
Units included within this qualification are:
• Health Checking a Dog by a Dog Groomer
• Assess, Plan and Record Dog Grooming Work
• Carry Out Styling and Finishing of a Dog
• Promote and Maintain the Health and Well-Being of Animals
• Welcome, Receive and Care for Customers
• Canine First Aid
Uniquely, students are continually assessed via practical demonstration and
coursework. You don’t have to sit an exam in order to achieve the
qualification. This holistic approach has been welcomed by students
internationally. Caliway & iPET Network wants to take the pressure out of
adult learning and this approach appeals to a wide range of students. We are
striving to improve industry standards by ensuring students walk out of our
doors qualified, confident and competent.
The Level 3 Diploma in Dog Grooming will demonstrate to an employer or the
general public that you have the necessary technical skills and knowledge to
successfully groom a variety of dogs. This is a formal, regulated, nationally
recognised qualification that will remain relevant throughout your career and
can only be achieved by reaching the required skill level. It has been
designed specifically for those looking to become professional dog groomers
or those who already groom dogs (as a hobby or career) but do not currently
hold a nationally recognized qualification.
Caliway offer a ''One Day in The Life of A Groomer'' for any potential student
who would like to get a feel for what the job is really like in a busy salon.
Please get in touch with us to arrange this.
