Turn Your Experience Into National Recognition and Real Opportunities

Have you mastered body sculpting treatments and want to teach others?
Do you want to run your own courses, mentor others, and be seen as a true leader in the beauty industry?
Here’s the truth:
You can’t legally become a trainer in Australia without a Cert IV in Training & Assessment (TAE40122/TAE40116)
And no 2-day course or salon-run certificate will give you the legal authority to train students or certify others.
If you’re serious about building a career as a body sculpting educator — the kind of trainer that’s respected, recognised, and compliant — then keep reading.
Why Being a Trainer Is the Ultimate Career Step in Beauty
Being a trainer isn’t just about knowledge. It’s about credibility, leadership, and business opportunity.
When you’re an accredited trainer, you can:
⟢ Build your own education brand
⟢ Run your own training courses
⟢ Legally issue certifications (with RTO backing)
⟢ Train in salons, clinics, academies, or your own studio
⟢ Be recognised across all industries — not just beauty
And most importantly: you’re no longer "just" a technician. You’re a trusted authority.
The Problem With Most "Trainer" Courses in Beauty
The industry is filled with short courses promising you the title of "trainer" — but without the actual qualification behind it.
If your course:
✓ Is not delivered by a Registered Training Organisation (RTO)
✓ Does not include a nationally recognised Cert IV in Training & Assessment (TAE40122)
✓ Does not meet government-approved standards
Then it won’t give you legal recognition as a trainer.
And without that? Your certificate means nothing
Bodi Slim's Dual Certification Is Designed for Career-Driven Professionals
I’ve worked with hundreds of salon owners and body sculpting professionals who wanted more. They didn’t just want to do treatments. They wanted to teach them.
That’s why I partnered with a Registered Training Organisation to offer:
1. Your Accredited Cert IV in Training & Assessment (TAE40122/TAE40116)
The nationally recognised qualification that makes you a real trainer. It’s required in every field — and now, it’s finally accessible through the beauty and body sculpting industry.
2. Bodi Slim's Mentorship and Industry Support
𔘓 You won’t be alone. I guide you through the Cert IV with full support:
𔘓 Help choosing body sculpting-based topics for your assessments
𔘓 Guidance creating your presentations, assessments, and trainer materials
𔘓 Real examples from fat freezing, RF, Muscle Stimulation, BBL and more
𔘓 Support from someone who actually understands this industry
This isn’t just a certificate. It’s the start of your next career chapter.
From Therapist to Trainer: Real Growth in Your Beauty Career
