By and large, the Blanche Macdonald Centre's Spa Therapist/Esthetics Diploma Program sets the industry standard. The Spa Therapist/Esthetics program is housed in a stunning cosmopolitan urban campus at a heritage mall - City Square. With approximately 30,000 square feet, the campus is the largest private Spa College in North America. With over 40 years of proven experience, being a student of the Blanche Macdonald Centre provides privileged access to a powerful network of over 10,000 alumni and an influential community of industry connections and partnerships.

The comprehensive and extensive training program covers all aspects of Spa Therapy and Esthetics from the most advanced skincare services and product knowledge, bodycare applications, nail care, make-up artistry, an overview of the latest medical-esthetics (medi-spa) and cosmetic rejuvenation treatments to essential business and entrepreneurial practices.

The Blanche Macdonald Centre has the proven credentials and the local, national and international reputation to help its graduates achieve success. The college's commitment to excellence is unparalleled - from the industry driven curriculum, the outstanding faculty, the continual nurturing, mentoring and guidance that the students receive to its outstanding career placement success.

Blanche Macdonald's Esthetic Instructors are passionate about the industry, their respect for each other and the students. They believe that everything is for the benefit of the students and, ultimately, the industry. A strong team, BMC Instructors are committed to personal excellence. They strive to be the best. They attend trade shows and training seminars regularly to keep in step with the ever-changing spa industry. They constantly network with owners, managers, spa directors, suppliers and educators.

Lasting friendships are formed as students complete each module. The students encourage each other through every aspect of their Esthetic training. Graduation day is one of laughter, happy tears and promises to keep in touch. As grads, they are fully prepared to enter the Esthetician's world, confident and proud of their achievements.

"A successful Esthetician/Spa Therapist knows how to make other feels comfortable. They love working in a caring environment, whether it's a holistic or equipment-oriented path. They enjoy learning, and being open to all the possibilities that their training can lead to", says Senior Esthetics Instructor, Barbra Baker.

Blanche Macdonald grads are the number one choice as employees in every venue of the spa industry. Former grads, now as owners of their own spas, rely on BMC for their staffing needs because they know the quality training students receive.

The bond between Grads and Instructors lasts long after they leave the school. Says Debbie Nickel, "Being a part of Blanche Macdonald isn't a limited time offer. It's a relationship that continues to evolve".

"The bottom line is that we care about each of our students. We respect their learning journey and their dreams!"
