Member Update with Gayle Dube #26

As we approach the final months of the year, many of us at ABIC reflect on a period marked by growth, collaboration, and, most importantly, advocacy. Our work is centred around supporting and uniting professionals like you who are passionate about making a difference in the industry. Whether you're a Beauty Therapist, Dermal Clinician, or Aesthetician, ABIC is committed to being your voice and ensuring that your needs are met on both professional and regulatory fronts.

Advocacy and Industry Representation

This year has been pivotal as we continue to advocate for recognition of the beauty and aesthetic industry within government bodies and regulatory frameworks. One of the key focuses has been our ongoing discussions with the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) regarding the Occupation Review for Beauty and Dermal therapists.

The review is critical in ensuring that our industry receives the acknowledgment it deserves, and ABIC has been leading the conversation, pushing for an accurate representation of the skills and expertise within our profession. If you haven't already, we encourage you to stay informed and participate in these discussions, as your input is invaluable.

Community and Collaboration

This is the perfect time to get involved with and take advantage of the resources and networks available to you. Whether it's attending webinars, educational events or simply connecting with fellow members, ABIC is here to facilitate those interactions and help you grow within the industry. We also continue to focus on ABIC SafeSkin™, our initiative to promote best practices in skin health and safety within clinics. 

Join the Conversation

It is essential to highlight the importance of staying connected. ABIC is your platform for growth, and we are here to support you every step of the way. Join our ongoing conversations, share your insights, and contribute to the future of the Aesthetic and Beauty Industry. 

If you're not already a member, now is the time to join the peak body that stands for your profession.  Together, we can continue advocating for stronger industry standards, building a supportive network, and ensuring the long-term success of beauty and aesthetics in Australia.
