  • "I've recently completed the training days of NVQ level 3 in Massage Therapy in Chichester with Jane and Jo. I have to say how amazing the training days were, Jane and Jo are so knowledgable and passionate and have the fantastic ability to break large volumes of information down into easily understandable chunks. I absolutely loved my days with them and can't wait to come back to do more courses." - Carrie

I look forward to studying courses with The Carlton Institute in the near future and will recommend your Windsor branch to my students. Your two Tutors were very professional and welcoming. They are a real credit to your organisation." - Rebecca

  • Please pass on my thanks to Helen for an excellent UV Gel nail course in Exmouth. The smaller group made it so much easier to learn and Helen's knowledge and enthusiasm for her subject was infectious. I am very much looking forward to my next course. Also, please thank your administration team for a very efficient booking system. Just waiting for my UV Gel kit to arrive so I can really get started!" - Daphne
  • I have thoroughly enjoyed the elite NVQ level 2 in Windsor. I feel I've gained confidence, not only in my skills, but also in knowing that I now have the understanding and knowledge that is required to be a successful therapist. As part of my course I was offered a placement at Bannytne Spa, which gave me invaluable work experience in the industry. The Spa have since offered me employment, which is absolutely fantastic! This is the perfect course for anyone hoping to start a career in Beauty. Chloe

  • I just wanted to say thank you to Helen in Exmouth for my Body Massage training. I so enjoyed the two days and found Helen such a great teacher! Her experience, knowledge, encouragement and patience was wonderful. At times I did fear and worry what I was doing, but she made me feel at ease it all just clicked together ! I can see the light! My clients will enjoy the extra therapy I can now offer them alongside the reflexology and IHM. I look forward to booking another course next year, Victoria
  • "I would like to say how pleased I was with the Body Massage and Hot Stone Therapy courses in Birmingham. I did wonder how so much would be covered in the time, but Claire is an amazing and very talented tutor. I do hope that Carlton will also add colour and crystal treatments to their excellent courses." - Marion,
  • I've done my portfolio for level 2 ....it was great, all the support Lynda gave me ..she did a superb job of helping me to finish this ...she is the best ..love u xxx...give her promotion if you can please she is the best in your institute xx Sohni.
  • The service provided by the Carlton Institute was excellent from my initial enquiry through to final assessment and receipt of my certificate. I would particularly like to praise my course instructor Jane. She was highly knowledgeable, friendly and approachable, and had good teaching skills. My experience with the CI was significantly better than another local training provider with whom I had previously taken a course. I plan to take further training with you in the future and would def recommend. Lorraine
  • I can honestly say that enrolling on the elite NVQ in Windsor was the best decision I could have made for my career! The tutors are great (without exception), support is available at every step and my placement as part of the course (at Champneys Town & City Spa) has also led to an offer of employment, which I am absolutely delighted with! I highly recommend this route for anyone thinking of taking the same step!" Janet.

Our course leader, Yoselyn, was fantastic. She was so friendly and helpful and it was an absolute pleasure to be taught by her, especially as she was so knowledgeable in all areas. From before I even made my booking, all the staff have been so helpful and supportive. Thanks Carlton Institute! Laura
  • I did Sports massage a few years ago at Stockport. It is an amazing course. Out of all the courses that I have done at the Carlton, massage is one of my favourite. Emma
