If there is one thing you do this month, learn online
The internet has become a key component for most things that exist in our daily lives; shopping, socialising, news and crucially, education. It’s an amazing tool for accessing whatever we want, whenever we want it. New pair of shoes? Ordered. The latest celebrity gossip? Read. And particularly for those keen on progressing their career but can’t make it to a class so easily, the internet has provided ample opportunity for online learning.
Indola’s iLearn is an interactive e-learning programme that is accessible at all times. It keeps hairdressing training as easy as a few clicks on the computer keyboard; so no excuses for not training yourself or your team. Leonardo Rizzo, global ambassador for Indola recognises this, “refreshing your knowledge is so key for being clued up about hairdressing. Clients come to us for professional advice, so we need to be informed and ready to advise them.” Without education or experience, you lack a certain authority and it is these crucial elements that you need in order for clients to trust you and to make that important return visit.
The industry is incredibly diverse, not everybody learns the same and neither are all salons. “The beauty of the hair industry is the variation, from big salons to independent hairdressers, to visionary individuals to boutique salon, so one-size definitely doesn’t fit all, This is why iLearn fits perfectly,” says Leonardo. Indola’s iLearn doesn’t exclude anyone; it’s all encompassing, all-inclusive and allows the student to work individually or as a team, whenever they need to. For anyone concerned about team training, you can use the iLearn information to build a basic structure for the class or for a specific reason-such as colouring and retailing.
“It definitely gives you freedom of choice to increase your knowledge and training to support you and your business” says Leonardo. There are four key areas, Product, Techniques, Knowledge and Retailing. The user can decide what they would like to brush up on and whether they learn best from visuals, text or by listening to someone speak. The information then combines the very best of all formats to make learning accessible, fun and as inspirational as possible. Leonardo adds, “it is so easy to use and you can have a quick session whenever it suits you to keep you fresh. You don’t even have to be a computer genius to use it too, as long as you’ve got basic computer skills.”
