Felicity Simmonds’ passion for beauty therapy began at home – but with the help of GOTAFE, it has grown into a career pathway.

“I always did my own beauty therapy at home with friends and family,” she said.

“Pursuing a career in beauty therapy felt like the right decision.”

With a little encouragement, Felicity enrolled into a Certificate IV in Beauty Therapy (SHB40121) at GOTAFE.

While getting to know people with similar interests has been a highlight of her time studying at GOTAFE, Felicity has also enjoyed gaining valuable skills to help her in her job at Velt Beauty in Albury.

"I love getting to do something I am really good at every day. Doing something I enjoy means it doesn’t feel like work."

Felicity’s learning journey is in good hands, with trainers who are also industry-qualified beauty therapists who share their knowledge regarding processes and techniques.

“We have been learning everything from lashes, brows and waxing to tanning, massage, facials and pedicures,” Felicity said.
