Sterling Style Academy | Image Consultant Training

Rather than suffer through a cold winter, wouldn’t you prefer some fun in the sun while benefiting from an amazing educational experience in Miami? Students will train in one of the US hot spots, Miami’s South Beach, a trendy area known for its white sandy beaches, luxurious resorts, fabulous night life and world-class shopping.

Miami is truly an exotic city that never sleeps! This location is known for its beautiful people, lively entertainment, fast cars, unique food, and perfect weather. The entertainment, modeling and fashion industries are booming. Being a cultural melting pot, students from diverse parts of the world such as Central and South America, the Caribbean and Europe train at Sterling Style Academy-Miami. Graduates of the 2009 course received in-class training at one of the latest and most exclusive luxury hotels to open in Miami’s South Beach, The Mondrian Hotel. Students train in the field of personal shopping at the chic shopping areas of Bal Harbour, home to Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue, and the Village of Merrick Park at Coral Gables, home to high-end designer boutiques.
