The Kleek Apprenticeship Journey:
  • As long as you're aged 16+, you can do an Apprenticeship, meaning you can start straight from school!
  • From day one, you’ll get paid! You’ll earn at least the National Minimum Wage for apprentices, which is currently £7.55 per hour. So, you’re building your future AND your bank account!
  • You’ll be training in a salon, spa or barbershop with clients and professionals, plus you’ll have the option to attend your local Kleek Academy for a training day, once per week, or your Kleek Educator will carry out in-salon training. 
  • Once you’ve completed your NVQ Level 2, you’ll be a fully qualified hairstylist, barber or beauty therapist. You’ll have the option to advance your skills and progress onto NVQ Level 3.
