In this episode of Vetiver Vibes Nikki and Rachael draw from six years of experience running their aromatherapy school, Essentria Aromatherapy School, to share must-know tips for selecting the right program. Whether you're a beginner or advancing your studies, they break down key factors to consider in your journey.

  • First Impressions Matter:
    • Assess how responsive a school is during initial contact.
    • Look for schools that offer personal connections, such as Zoom meetings, to evaluate their fit for your educational goals.
  • Accreditation is Crucial:

    • These connections lend credibility and provide professional support.
  • Course Structure & Content:
    • Understand the distinction between foundational and advanced certifications.
    • Ensure programs include essential components like anatomy and physiology.

    • Research the qualifications and teaching styles of instructors.
    • Ensure their background aligns with your learning style and goals.
