Does this sound like you?

You want to get to know the JDO Method.
But not yet invest in the whole course.

"That is why I developed JDO Discover. Not everyone knows straight away whether a career as a Make-up Artist is the right step. Sometimes you first want to experience whether this way of learning and working suits you before investing in a full course."

Juliette den Ouden

Experiences

JDO Discover students in their own words.

I had been interested in make-up for years, but doubted whether I wanted to do something professional with it. JDO Discover gave me the chance to explore this calmly, without having to choose a full course straight away. The lessons were clear, professional and inspiring. I discovered that my interest went far beyond a hobby, and afterwards decided to progress to the full Make-up Artist Class.
Discovering whether the craft suits meJDO Discover · Make-up
With a busy job and a family, I first wanted to experience whether a make-up course would fit my life. Thanks to JDO Discover I could follow the modules whenever it suited me and practise at home at my own pace. I learned the most important basic techniques and got a good sense of the JDO Method. It gave me the confidence that a new creative direction is possible for me too.
Learning alongside work and familyJDO Discover · Make-up
I had always loved make-up, but was unsure about my technique and didn't know where to start. During JDO Discover I learned to look more consciously at skin, products, colour and building a complete look. The lessons gave me structure and only made me more enthusiastic. Because my investment was credited when moving up, the step to the full course felt logical and achievable.

Questions about Discover.

Yes. JDO Discover is fully flexible: there are no fixed lesson times, deadlines or groups. You learn whenever and as often as you like, perfect to combine with work, family or travel.
Do I need experience to start?
No. The JDO Method guides you step by step from basics to professional level. Beginners are welcome, a passion for make-up is enough to start.
How much time does the course take on average per week?
You decide that yourself. Most students spend 4 to 6 hours per week, but you can also catch up intensively or take a break for a while. No deadlines, only your ambition sets the pace.
