SAAHSP Third Beauty Indaba 9 September 2024
SAAHSP is excited to be part of the Professional Beauty 8 and 9 September 2024 Conference and we look forward to meeting up with industry colleagues, members and friends. Our theme for this indaba is “Transforming Beauty, Health and Skincare 2026.”
We chose 2026 as this is the crucial year when the new qualification will replace 58310, the diploma in health and skincare, and it has to be implemented by then. If ever our industry needs more momentum and unity, it is now. With platforms like our Indabas and professional conventions like Professional Beauty, we can continue to highlight industry needs and tap into all avenues to facilitate debate, dialogue and information sharing.
While gaining more compliance within industry and supporting for Skills Development we will address various topics that involve transformation within the beauty, health and skin sectors. All our topics will be related to the current extension of scope within our education levels.
Here are just a few of our topics to whet your appetite:
1. Transformation within our industry: how can we uplift skills and knowledge when formal education has not been available or documented?
2. RPL for our industry: where to now?
3. Debates on compliance, scopes, skills development and the development of designations.
4. Practicing within scope and aesthetic developments within industry and how to get there.
5. New education developments, the explanation of why the extension was necessary, and how we as an industry can move ahead to meet the new requirements.
Designation changes: how far are we, what can we expect, and how can we move quickly through these transformations’ steps?
While the designation of our therapists takes time, we have seen the need to improve the RPL process drastically and ensure that the level of education and professionalism is upheld. This will also be thoroughly discussed.
We look forward to exploring this and more with you all in person as we all come together to support our industry. Our professional body is very happy to announce that this platform program is proudly sponsored. However, seats are limited, but every effort will be made to allow all those who register to attend.
