Celebrating 45 incredible years in the health and skincare industry leads me to reflect on the remarkable journey that has brought us to this milestone, writes Isabel Carstens-Roos director of Isa Carstens® Academy.
Our humble beginnings in 1978 saw us running a one-year course with nine students. Today we offer three qualifications, accredited by the Council on Higher Education (CHE) and registered by the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET), at two campuses and have three student hostels.
All this was achieved through 45 years of dedication to educating employable therapists aligned to our vision and mission. Our success is about the excellent teamwork, creativity, bravery, and self-sacrifice over many years of students, lecturers, administrative staff, parents and industry stakeholders. Thank you to all of you who have participated in this epic journey.
