Our students consistently report high levels of satisfaction with their education at International Skin Beauty Academy. Many of our graduates have gone on to successful careers in the skincare and healthcare industries, and we are proud of their accomplishments. Here are a few of their testimonials:

"The decision to go back and finish school was of very great importance to me. When I came across ITA, I knew it was the perfect fit, given my background in esthetics and my goals of continuing my education in healthcare. The CMA program combines theory and clinical experience, which facilitates a balanced education. The material is presented in an organized and structured way, while still maintaining a supportive environment. ITA guides and encourages you to reach your full potential and for that I am ever grateful to Dr. Doran & Ms. Helen. I am now even more motivated, confident and prepared to go forward with my career in healthcare." - Courtney A

"Everything about this school is amazing! Dr. Doran and Ms. Carrie really care about every student and want everyone to succeed. Looking for an esthetician school was hard because there are so many. I had scheduled 5 interviews to meet with each school and every school took 10-15 minutes with me. But not ISBA. Dr. Doran took an hour of her time to meet with me and tell me why her school is the best fit for me. Listening to her talk about her school and everything they have to offer me in being a great esthetician made the decision easy. Also watching her get emotional about past students accomplishments sold me. I have graduated from ISBA and now have a full time job as a medical esthetician! I can honestly say i picked the right school!" - Sarah V

"I completed my Clinical Esthetics at International Skin Beauty Academy and would say I had a wonderful experience that I will cherish for the rest of my life. I am very happy that I chose this school to study what I love. The teachers are very knowledgeable and simply amazing and go above and beyond to make sure each and every student is prepared for the state exam. Dr. Doran truly care about the needs of the students and the integrity of their practice and Ms. Carrie is the sweetest person you ever met. Thank you very much for everything! I recommend this school to anyone who wants to start a new path in this great industry!" - Viktoriya N.
