The purpose of this course is to train students in basic manipulative skills, safety judgments, proper work habits and desirable attitude necessary for an entry level position in esthetics and/or related careers. This course consists of 750 clock hours of study in both theory and practical skill development that is required for licensing the Washington State Department of Licensing. Theory and practical practices precede laboratory activities with students expected to complete assignments in each phase of training and receive a passing grade on each exercise before being allowed to participate in laboratory activities. Theory and practice are integrated throughout the esthetics course. All education and learning environments at Elite are conducted in English to include classroom activity and clinic floor education
