The University of Derby has announced a new partnership with the London College of Beauty Therapy (LCBT) that will give LCBT students access to the university's International Spa Management Foundation degree, from September 2018.
The course is designed to give students a thorough understanding of the spa environment, as well as equip them with the knowledge, skills and practical skills required to work in managerial positions across the spa industry. Students learn not only about treatments and therapies, but also about how to manage people, business strategy, marketing and communications, sales and promotions and research skills.
Students studying at the LCBT will be able to access both the foundation degree and the university's online library, whilst also benefiting from LCBT's long standing industry and employer links.
"This is an exciting partnership for the University of Derby that will provide excellent opportunities to students," said Isobel Stockdale, deputy head of Hotel, Resort and Spa Management at the University of Derby.
