Enrolment for 2027 and Beyond

As we look ahead to another exciting year at The Iver Makeup Academy, we’re already preparing to welcome the next generation of talented makeup artists in 2027. Every year, we see aspiring creatives walk through our doors with passion, ambition and a dream of turning their love for makeup into a career  and many leave with the skills, confidence and industry knowledge to make it happen.

If you’ve ever thought about working in film, television, theatre, fashion or creative makeup, now is the perfect time to start your journey.

Wondering how to join one of our 2027 courses? Here’s what the application process looks like:

Meet with Principal Liz Tagg

Your journey begins with a either an in person or Zoom consultation with our Principal,  Liz Tagg. During your conversation, Liz will guide you through our range of courses and help identify the pathway best suited to your interests, experience and long-term goals.

This is your opportunity to ask questions, gain valuable insight into the industry, and discover where your training could take you after graduation.

Portfolio Submission

As part of the application process, we ask you to submit a portfolio showcasing your artistic work. This can include makeup, hair, art, design, photography, illustration, textiles, or any other creative discipline that demonstrates your artistic ability and visual awareness.

Your portfolio helps us understand your creative interests, artistic potential, and suitability for the programme. A strong artistic eye is essential, and we look for evidence of how you observe, interpret, and communicate ideas visually.

Don’t have a portfolio yet? Our Taster Days offer a great introduction to life at The Iver Makeup Academy, helping you develop creative skills, explore artistic techniques, and begin building work that can contribute to your portfolio.

Following your consultation and portfolio assessment, successful applicants will be offered a place on one of our courses, subject to availability. We’ll work closely with you to ensure the course you choose supports your ambitions and future career goals.
