Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to originate and refine hair design concepts for products, programs, or services to a point where they could be implemented.This unit applies to highly skilled senior hairdressers who have substantial experience across the industry and who work at a national or international level as freelance session stylists or creative or artistic directors for larger hairdressing organisations and product companies. They work with significant autonomy, have highly developed specialised technical, creative, conceptual and leadership skills and knowledge and are responsible for making a range of strategic design, operational and team decisions. They provide technical and creative leadership, training and support to colleagues and the industry at large.No occupational licensing, certification or specific legislative requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Assessment must ensure use of:

people with whom the individual can interact for all communication aspects of this unit; these can be:

people in an industry workplace; or

people who participate in project activities, role plays or simulated activities within a training organisation

computers and general software programs to document concept proposals

templates to record concept proposals.

Assessors must satisfy the Standards for Registered Training Organisation’s requirements for assessors; and:

hold the Graduate Certificate in Hairdressing Creative Leadership, or be able to demonstrate equivalence of competencies; and

have at least five years full time employment experience in the hairdressing industry where they have applied the skills and knowledge covered in this unit of competency.

Element: Refine hair design concepts.
  • Ensure concept development process is open to ongoing refinement and testing.
  • Seek input and feedback on concepts from relevant stakeholders.
  • Seek specialist advice on creative and technical aspects of proposals as required.
  • Compare concepts with best practice examples of similar products, programs, processes or services.
