Hi,
I have no training currently but I’m interested in becoming a color analyst mastery consultant, and not sure what courses I would need to attain that. Do I need to do two different courses? Also where are the in person courses held? What are the dates for the next courses? Please provide as much information you can to help me decide which courses I would need.
Thank you so much!
Robin
Thank you for your interest in our colour analysis training! You can see complete information at https://imageinstitute.com/image-career-development/courses/colour-analysis/.
The training has two parts – online (Qualification) and in-person (Mastery).
You have the option of taking only the Qualification; if you want the Mastery, it also includes the Qualification.
The next Mastery training is October 14-15 in Toronto at 48 Cawthra.
The online Qualification includes:
All course materials – books, webinars, etc.
‘Anytime schedule’ – work on the courses at your own pace
Life-time access to the Inner Circle Training Room, where you can review the training and updates at any time
Templates and bonus materials
Assignments and coaching
AICI Continuing Education Units, should they be necessary
A Letter of Completion
Graduate discounts on tools
Mastermind Mentoring calls
Access to our Inner Circle Facebook page, for ongoing support and interaction with our graduate community
The Mastery includes everything in the Qualification as well as two intensive days of hands-on application and coaching.
Hello, If I purchase the Qualification level now, is there a different cost to add Mastery at a later date? Or must Mastery be chosen as the initial option? Thank you so much,
Melody
Hi, thanks for asking! If you get the Qualification now. you simply pay the difference to upgrade to the Mastery at a later date.
Hi Karen-
I am very interested in your color analysis training… would you please clarify if your program includes information/mentoring on how to set up your business and get clients. Thank you.
Hi Kate! To receive additional business start-up support you can either do that through our Advancement Program or another amazing tool is our Inner Circle Facebook group which you will be given access to upon sign-up. The group is full of image and colour veterans as well as others that are just starting out and is a great resource for asking questions and getting insights and support from your colour community.
it’s saying there’s a mastery course in august? is that not correct? I was just about to sign up for it.
Hi Alisha, Yes there is a Colour Mastery Course August 8 – 10 in Toronto. There are a few spaces left! Thank you for asking!
Hi Karen,
I’m interested in doing the full complete training, likely in September 2025. Is the address still the same at 48 cawthra for the two day in-person training? I would be coming 2.5 hours out of town and would need to figure out accommodations.
Hi Chantelle,
Colour Analysis is at 48 Cawthra in Toronto September 12-14. The rest of the training is in my home in Nobleton. We have a 5-bedroom airbnb close by booked for the first 5 students that confirm. There are other airbnb’s in the area for those that do not want to share, and The Hampton Inn in Bolton is also a possibility. I hope you can attend!
I can have Rianna send you some more information, if you’d like.
Oh I thought the rest of the training was online
Can you tell me how long the rest of training would be in nobleton and when? I live 2.5 hours away
Hi Chantelle,
We will email you the complete information!
Karen
Looking into the May Mastery 2024, in-person class. What are the times of the classes each day so that I know when I need to fly in & out. Thank you so much.
Hi Bethany, thanks for asking! The training is 9:30 – 5:30. There is only one spot left in the May training! We’re setting up another training for September 6-8.
Thanks, Karen! I’ve purchased qualification, how should I pay the remainder for Mastery?
I will email you the promo code so that you only pay the difference.
Hello, isn’t there a virtual training program online? I live far away from Canada and would like to become a color analysis professional
Hi Zoe! We have the colour analysis qualification program which is all online. You can start anytime at complete it at your own pace. https://training.imageinstitute.com/register/colour-analysis-qualification/. Just let us know if there is anything else we can help with.
Hello!
When I register for the Mastery program, wanted to clarify… I am paying $2497 which includes the in person and the online qualifications. I am considering the August training.
Thank you 🙂
Hi Sara; yes, when you register for Mastery, the tuition includes both the in-person training and the online Qualification. There is still space in the August 2024 training in downtown Toronto!
Hi Karen,
Are there many spots left in the August session and where is the location (GoTrain vs driving in)? Also, will there be another session in September?
Thank you!
Hi Corry, we currently have 3 spots left for our August training. The location is downtown Toronto so you can drive, train, or subway :). There are no classes in September, but if October is better for you, I can see if there is enough room to squeeze one more person in. The October classes are in Toronto but not downtown; they are held in the Junction area.
Hi Karen!
Two questions:
1. Can you remind me how to gain access to the Inner Circle Facebook Group?
2. For the Mastery Training in October, am I correct in understanding that there is not an option to do just the color analysis mastery at this time, you would have to enroll in the full 9 day image consulting program?
Thank you so much!
Erin
Hi Erin, I have just sent you an invitation to join our private Inner Circle Facebook Group. Because you are our student, you will be approved once you ask to join. If you don’t receive this invitation, you can do a search in Facebook for Karen’s Inner Circle. Correct, the Colour Analysis Mastery portion of the October training is currently only available to those taking the full program as we are quite booked out. We do have a Colour Analysis Mastery class happening in March 2025 which you are welcome to join :)! Just let me know if you would like some more information on these dates. If you have any other questions, you are welcome to email me at rianna@imageinstitute.com. Thanks Erin!
Wonderful! Thank you so much for the Inner Circle invite I will look in to being there in March. Have a great day!
Hi! I’m looking at all the dates for in person options for mastery. Will there be more dates added between March and Oct 2025?
Thank you!
Hi Mel, we should be adding another training in June 2025 but the dates are not yet confirmed. I recommend signing up for our newsletter or following us on social media to receive updates on our training date releases.
Hello,
I am Nariman Sadek and I have been certified back in 2020 as an Image Consultant by the International Careers Institute after completing the Image Consulting course that they offer.
I am actively working as an Image Consultant and Personal stylist ever since.
I am aiming to update and broaden my knowledge and education levels in that area because I currently teach styling through a fashion school in Egypt called The School Of Fashion Management. My students currently are all people who want to start a career in styling and do not have any background or experience.
I am looking for something that would give me a higher level certification and would allow me to train and certify others as well by an accredited institution.
Is this something you offer?
Hello Nariman,
Thank you for reaching out and sharing your background in Image Consulting.
While we don’t offer accreditation for training others, as this process is restricted and governed in Canada, we can certainly assist with expanding your knowledge and providing further training opportunities. If you’re looking to deepen your expertise, feel free to email us at rianna@imageinstitute.com, and we’d be happy to provide more information on how we can support your continued growth in this field.
Hi there! Thank you for this amazing opportunity. To clarify, if I take the initial qualification program online, do I receive any drapes or color swatches with completion? Or is that part of the in-person mastery class? What do I take home with me from the Mastery class? Or is the class separate for certification and you sell the drape kits separately? How does this work? Thank you!
Hi Amy
Thank you for your message and for your interest in our programs!
Our training fees do not include any of the assessment tools or drapes in order to keep the cost economical. These tools are available for purchase separately but registration in either our Qualification or Mastery class will come with discounts codes for some great savings on these products!
As for the in-person Mastery class, you will take home our Colour Analysis Reference Guide and a colour swatch wallet in your own personal palette. This way, you can choose the tools that best fit your needs as you continue your practice.
Please let me know if you have any further questions!
Hi Karen, I am very excited because I’ve made the decision to enroll in the mastery training. However, I was wondering there is a break during the program (as it is all day training) where I could exit the building to pray (for a religious obligation), it would only be one time and take 5-10 minutes. Additionally, I was wondering if I could have an accommodation to practice in person analysis on a female model only (for religious purposes as well). If this is not allowed in your training I understand.
Hi Duha. Thank you for your questions! We take breaks during the training, so we can definitely accommodate the break for the timing that you need. Yes, you can work with only female clients during the colour training.
Hello,
I live in Poland and it is extremaly hard for me to allow course directly. Can you promotor any course in Europe or tell the name of type course I need to find to go the similar way as you do? Kind Regards Anna
Hi Anna,
At this time we don’t know of similar training in Europe. We are considering doing our training in Europe in 2026, if you are interested.
Hi! I’m looking to sign up for the Mastery Course and attend the June 13-15th in-person training. I am a US citizen, and was wondering if you could provide the following information:
1. Are there international fees attached to this training purchase?
2. Where in Toronto is the training taking place?
3. Which airport do you recommend flying into? Any recommendations on hotels?
4. Any additional things that I need to be aware of being from out of the country?
Thank you for your help!
Hi Courtney,
There are no international fees attached to the training. With the value of the USD, the fees are actually about 20-25% less for you.
The Colour Analysis training is in the Junction area (Keele and Davenport) area of Toronto.
I recommend flying into the Pearson International airport; the Billy Bishop City Airport is also convenient.
The only thing you need is your passport!
Thank you for your help! Are there still any openings for the June 13-15 dates? If not, when will the July/August dates be released? Looking forward to the training!
Hi! I’m hoping to sign up for the June mastery course. I just want to make sure there is space before I sign up. Thank you!
Hi Lauren,
Thank you for asking! There are currently 2 spots available.
I’m trying to sign up but it says my card doesn’t support the purchase? I’m from the US. Do you have any advice?
Hi Lauren,
I’m sorry to hear that! It might be the type of card you’re using. We take Visa, Mastercard and paypal. Are you able to use any of those? You can also email us directly for help at Rianna@imageinstitute.com.
Hello,
I’m from Florida and would like to enroll in your July 11 program. I was just wondering about logistics- how far you are from an airport and if there’s a hotel nearby and the location of the color analysis training.
The colour analysis training is in the ‘Junction’ area of Toronto close to Keele and Davenport. It is about 30 minutes from the Pearson International airport. There are many airbnb’s in the area. As it’s close to the Bloor subway, you also have the option of hotels close to downtown.
Why is Qualification 16 and Mastery is 23? I’m looking for online training for all palettes.
Thanks for your question!
The Qualification program focuses on the 16-palette system as a strong foundation for learning colour analysis online. It’s designed to help students begin practicing with structure and clarity, especially when working independently. While it includes some coaching, it’s more limited than what’s provided in Mastery—so developing the level of refinement required for 23 palettes can take longer without additional guidance.
That said, graduates of Qualification are not limited to 16 palettes. They’re welcome to incorporate all 23 as they build confidence and accuracy. However, we strongly recommend ongoing coaching and feedback—whether through Mastery or other mentorship opportunities—to ensure consistent and accurate results, especially when working at higher levels of nuance.
The Mastery training includes everything in the Qualification program, plus an intensive in-person component that allows for deeper skill development, live feedback, and advanced refinement with all 23 palettes. Working directly with a master colour analyst helps accelerate your growth and confidence with both people and palettes.
If your goal is to work with all 23 palettes through online training, the Qualification program is a great place to start—but the more feedback you’re able to get along the way, the stronger and more precise your eye will become.
Let us know if you’d like help figuring out which path suits your goals best!
Hi Karen, I’d like to do the mastery class. Would you be able to squeeze me in for the June session? Thank you.
Hi Shirley,
We would love to squeeze you in, but we already have a wait list! We can certainly add you to it. Is August a possibility for you?
Hi Karen,
I would really love to start training as a colour analyst and I am interested in your courses. I am from Ireland and colour analysis isn’t really a big thing here so I think there is a market for it. I’m working part time and woukd love to start a little business on the side with a view to growing it. I’m just wondering if you would you advice starting with the foundations course or qualifation course?
I’m not 100% sure which one to go for. I would eventually love to ho on to do the mastery course in Canada.
Am I correct in saying that each course builds on each other?
I would love your advice.
Kind regards
Siobhan Hayes
Hi Siobhan,
Thank you for asking! The best place to start is the Qualification online; it’s a prerequisite to the Mastery. When you are ready to take the in-person Mastery, you would only pay the difference to upgrade (with a $20 CAD admin fee).
I look forward to welcoming you to our community!
Hi there,
I am really interested in the July training. Is there a way to be added to the waitlist? And if I were to sign up for the online portion now, does it change the cost of going to the mastery session by not bundling it? Thanks in advance!
Hi Claire. We recently had a cancellation in the July training, so at this time there is a spot. Otherwise, you can certainly be on the waitlist. If you sign up for the online portion now, it only adds $20 to the tuition if you upgrade to the Mastery later.
Okay awesome! I’m not seeing a spot open right now so wondering if it got filled already.
Wondering if there is a waitlist for the August class! I am working through the Qualification but I feel like an in person hands on would really suit me. If I signed up for an in person course, do you have to do all the online Qualification portion before in person, or is it included as part of the in person training?
Yes, you can join the waitlist for the August training. To attend the in-person, we recommend that you at minimum watch all the videos. You can do the assignments either before or after the in-person. Modules 6 and 7 are completed during the in-person training, so they do not need to be done prior to the training.
How does a person get on the waitlist?
Hi Elizabeth,
I’ve just added you to the waitlist for August; you are 3rd in line. Do you also want to be added to the waitlists for July and/or September, just in case?
Hi Karen!
Do I need to attend all three days of the training in November if I upgrade from the Qualification training to the Mastery class?
Catherine
Hi Catherine,
If you upgrade to the Mastery, then you would get all 3 days of the training. To take only some of it would not really be complete. The Qualification is a foundation for the in-person Mastery.
Thank you Karen
Sounds good, I will sign up for the November Mastery class. Do I have a few days to send you my form or is it almost full already?
Looking forward to meeting you!
Yes, you have a few days to register!
Hi Karen I will sign up for the November training but would love to be advised if you get a cancellation in August. could you let me know ?? I see there is already a waitlist. Thank you !!
Hi! I am trying to sign up for the March course, but when I go to checkout there is nowhere to indicate which dates I would like to attend. Would I just follow up via email after signing up?
Hi Maddie,
Yes, you can let us know in an email which dates you prefer!
