My PCA Career

I have been:

• involved in color analysis for 40 years
• seeing clients for 30 years
• teaching students for 18 years

**********
Have you ever thought about starting your own business? Do you like working with color, cosmetics, or fashion? Would you like to help others feel good about themselves? Then becoming a personal color analyst may be for you. Would you believe that in as little as 4 days you can learn the skills you need to be begin this rewarding career? It’s true. And you will be trained in the 12-Tone Personal Color Analysis Method by a certified Sci\ART™ instructor.

I enjoy teaching one student at a time, so you will have exclusive one-on-one training. I arrange to have 5 models for training, plus your own PCA.

Skype/Zoom/other

I find it important and beneficial if we can Skype to discuss possible training. There are usually many questions or concerns by the student, plus my own questions for the potential student. Emails are fine, but talking gets us through the information so much faster.

If we discuss possible training dates, they are not locked in until the deposit is received.

How is My Training Different?

I train in a logical, systematic way. I’ve developed a PCA Guide, which is a document, exclusive to my students, that helps track our progress during a PCA and allows analysts to decipher trends and analyze choices throughout the draping.

I also developed a ‘What To Test When You Reach A Result’ sheet showing what to cross-check for accuracy.

A question I am often asked is, “Are you a 12 Blueprints analyst?”No, I am a Sci/ART trained analyst trained by Kathryn Kalisz, creator of the SciART system. I did train the founder of 12 Blueprints in 2009.  She then went on to train and create her brand.

4-Day Workshop

Hours:  8:30 am – 4:30 pm (estimated – times sometimes varies).

Approximately 1 hour for lunch. Cost of lunch is not included in the tuition.

Tuition

The tuition is $3,500.

Tuition also includes: The New Munsell Student, and 1 Client Cap, 1 Client Headband, 1 Client Cape, 1 Analyst Coat in neutral gray.

A non-refundable deposit of $300 is required 4-6 weeks prior to training in the form of a personal check or cashier’s check made out to Terry Wildfong. The balance is to be paid, in cash at the start of the first day of training. If you do not wish to carry cash, I will accept a cashier’s check made payable to: Terry Wildfong.

*Additional class time can be purchased at a negotiated rate.
