I was one of the pioneer CIBTAC students of EWI Academy in 2000. Although I hold a Diploma in Hotel Management I decided to enroll in the beauty course as I believe the beauty industry is very interesting and promising.
Wong Pui-Chion, Senior Tutor of EWI Academy
In EWI Academy there are plenty of continous learning opportunities. Even as a tutor, I was able to upgrade and obtain the CIDESCO diploma while teaching there. Thanks also to EWI for giving me other learning opportunities to enhance my knowledge while teaching in the academy through the IDI (International Dermal Institute) classes conducted by international trainers from the International Dermal Institute, USA. I aspired to be a professional tutor as I enjoy teaching and get great satisfaction when I see a raw student transformed into a confident professionally qualified skincare therapist. Thanks to EWI Academy, I am able to realise this aspiration and also to help professionalise the beauty industry by producing hundreds of professionally qualifed skincare therapists.
I loved my job as a professional skincare therapist in Leonard Drake skincare and health spa and am thankful that I chose to study in EWI Academy.
I am one of the lucky ones who learned about and signed up for the Golden Therapist Programme (GTP) sponsored by Leonard Drake, the leading skincare company in Malaysia. Under this GTP, Leonard Drake sponsored my full time study in EWI Academy and I graduated with a CIBTAC diploma in 2001.

The best part is I am guaranteed a job in one of the Leonard Drake outlets upon graduation. I dont know which other company can offer a better deal than Leonard Drake!
On why Norfaradilla (Fara) choose to study in EWI Academy, she said Of course I surveyed a few beauty schools before I chose EWI Academy. I found that EWI Academy is a very good place to provide students with a good beauty foundation to prepare for our career path. The tutors are experienced and professional, bi-lingual and use innovative teaching techniques. Facilities are modern and good. She added that the GTP has job attachment training in Leonard Drake and AsterSpring centres with hands-on treatment for students. Besides, the school provides student notes in Bahasa Malaysia too which helps me a lot to understand and learn faster and effectively. Fara has a word of advice for anyone interested in pursuing a beauty course: The best thing about being in EWI Academy is that it really prepares you well for the future. It does not give you a fish but teaches you how to fish.
