Our extended course offers the same comprehensive curriculum as our PGA Diploma program, but with an invaluable bonus – an additional week of training. This option is perfect for students who recognize the value of that extra week of learning and seek to maximize their skills and knowledge. This course is a favorite among those who prefer a non-exam route. What's even better is that once you complete this program, you have the flexibility to pursue the City & Guilds (C & G) or Aim qualifications qualification, should you choose to do so. It's the best of both worlds, tailored to your preferences and future ambitions.

 You will style a variety of the popular breeds which regularly visit a grooming salon. You will learn how to handle clippers, scissors and thinners to create style to your groom. You will learn how to assess, plan, style, finish, promote and maintain the health and well being of animals with customer care in mind. ​This course encompasses everything found in the PGA Diploma program, with the added advantage of an extra 5 days of tuition. This bonus week is perfect for those looking to gain additional experience and boost their confidence. The course comprises 6 days of home study and 29 days of hands-on practical training in our salon. Upon completion, you'll be awarded the prestigious PGA in-house dog grooming diploma
