How Priyanka gained financial stability doing what she loves
by

When Priyanka became a mother, it ignited a desire within her to explore entrepreneurship as a means to create flexibility and financial stability for her family.

Priyanka’s started her own beauty business, Pinnacle Makeover by Priyanka Prashanth, which specialises in bridal make-up application and hairdressing. She believes enhancing their appearance can help people feel more confident and empowered, allowing them to face the world with a greater sense of self-assurance.

To help take her small beauty business to the next level, Priyanka realised she needed some business training and coaching. This led her to enrol in the Micro Business Skillset course at Chisholm. She chose to study at Chisholm so she could study after-hours, in online live classes with a teacher over video. This option enabled her to balance her responsibilities as a new mother and, with her husband’s support, she could dedicate uninterrupted time to studying.

Priyanka successfully completed the course in one month. “I really enjoyed the interactive discussions and practical assignments; they enabled me to apply concepts in real-world scenarios, enhancing my learning experience,” she said. “The course assisted me to design and implement business plans, financial forecasts and marketing techniques for my own business.”

Chisholm offers a range of business courses, from certificates in accounting and bookkeeping to diplomas and Higher Education study, including a Bachelor of Business (Accounting, CPA).

The Micro Business Skill Set and New Business Ventures Skill Set courses are currently free with government funding. If you are self-employed, planning to start a business or just have a business idea, contact us to discuss eligibility and options.
