A Year to Remember at TGB Academy and What’s Next for You in 2026

Dec 29 / TGB Academy
From online learning launches to global courses, 2025 was huge for TGB Academy. See what’s next in 2026 — education, growth and tools to elevate your nail career and business. 

As we come to the end of another incredible year, it feels only right to pause, reflect, and celebrate just how much the TGB Academy community has achieved together. This year has been packed with growth, learning, connection and a lot of light-bulb moments. 

Whether you joined us online, attended an in-person course, tuned into a live masterclass, or followed along with our resources, you’ve been part of something really special. So… let’s rewind a little. 

What We’re Proud of This Year

Launching Our Online Academy Platform
This year we officially launched our online learning platform, giving nail techs access to conversion courses, education on demand, and the freedom to learn at their own pace — wherever they are in their career. 

Growing the Education Hub 
We expanded our Education Hub, packed with free resources designed to support you beyond the treatment room — from technique refreshers to business advice and confidence-building tools. 

The TGB Academy Blog 
Our weekly blog became a go-to for nail techs looking for real, useful content. From business tips and product knowledge to nail art inspiration and formula deep-dives, it’s been all about supporting your growth, not just your skills. 

Live Masterclasses & Community Building 
With 26 live masterclasses hosted this year, we connected with thousands of techs in real time. These sessions helped build a supportive, knowledgeable community - something we’re incredibly proud of. 

The TGB Roadshow 
We took BIAB™ on the road! The TGB Roadshow travelled across the UK, offering hands-on education and giving techs the chance to learn, practise and connect in person. 

The First Ever Business Edit Event 
Launching our Business Edit event was a huge milestone. Watching techs gain clarity, confidence and direction in their businesses reminded us why education is so powerful. 

A Global Impact 
As a global Academy team, we delivered over 3,000 in-person courses worldwide this year — supporting nail techs at every stage of their journey. 

So… What’s Coming in 2026?

If 2025 was about growth, 2026 is about elevation. 

Whether your goals are to: 
  • Increase your income 
  • Expand your service menu 
  • Build confidence 
  • Attract clients that are suited to you 
  • Or finally focus on the business side of nails 

…we’ve got courses and resources designed to help you get there. 

Ready to Upskill?

Courses like Hard Gel and ProForm™ allow you to offer higher-value services and attract a broader client base — perfect if 2026 is the year you want to work smarter, not longer.

Thinking Long-Term?

With structured learning pathways and upcoming career-focused courses, TGB Academy is here to support not just your next course, but your future in the industry. 

Your Goals, Backed by Education

Every nail tech’s journey looks different. Some want to master their craft. Others want to scale, teach, or build a brand. Whatever your goals for 2026, education is the foundation that supports them all. 

We’re so grateful to everyone who’s been part of the TGB Academy this year and we can’t wait to continue supporting you as you step into the next chapter. 

Here’s to growth, confidence, and even bigger wins in 2026.
