Electrology Program (320 Hours)

OBJECTIVE: This program is designed for comprehensive training in permanent hair removal. Excessive hair has become an increasing problem to both men and women today, so the field for trained Electrologists is rapidly expanding. Our program goes well beyond basic training. The modern short wave, blend, and multiple galvanic methods of Electrolysis are taught on a personalized basis.

Demonstration of machines and, most modern equipment will be given. Students will also be taught to adhere to the highest standards of sanitation and cleanliness in maintaining equipment and the environment of the electrolysis office. At the completion of this program, graduates will qualify to apply for state license examination and the national certification testing.

We will assist in the selection of the right equipment to set up a practice or we will attempt to place graduates in an office or salon. A diploma will be awarded upon graduation from the program.
