Unlock Spa Industry Success: Dual Certification

Many massage therapists are now working in the rapidly growing, multi-billion-dollar spa industry. Students who complete both beauty school and massage training are uniquely qualified for the spa industry. Employers realize that these individuals are able to perform a wider range of spa treatments than estheticians or massage therapists alone. Obtaining certification in both fields can offer more opportunity for profitable employment. Portland Beauty Academy is unique in offering two highly compatible professional licensing programs.
