Let’s talk qualifications – is your groomer really the real deal? 🤔
I’ve done as much research as I can (for now), but let’s be honest, this is just the tip of the iceberg. I’m sure someone will point out a mistake or suggest other qualifications I’ve missed. 👀 And that’s exactly what I want to hear!
So here’s the thing – nearly all dog grooming qualifications in the UK will cost between £3K-£5K and usually take place at a dog grooming school. But here’s the kicker: groomers with years of experience should seriously consider the ICMG dog grooming certification UK, which can be done online for theory and over Zoom for practicals. No excuses, right? 💻🐶
But here’s what really gets me… I’m honestly tired of hearing things like, “I’m booked up for months, so why do I need a piece of paper to prove I can do the job?” 🤦♀️
The truth is – you don’t know what you don’t know. Without continual study and CPD (continuous professional development), how can you possibly keep up with new techniques, safety standards, and best practices? 🧐
What do you think?
