Our Goal
To equip you to become a successful Certified Electrologist.
We are here for you long after you complete our course to ensure that you build yourself a successful business or go on to find a successful career in electrolysis.
The Program
1
Choose Your Instructor and Start Date
We offer flexibility from the very beginning. With Certified Instructors located across Canada—and more being added regularly—you can select the instructor and location that best fits your needs. Each instructor sets their own start dates, so you're able to find a timeline that works for your life and goals.
2
Learn the Theory at Your Own Pace
The theory portion of our program is delivered 100% online, making it easy to learn from anywhere. With 120 hours of self-paced coursework, you’ll build a strong foundation in the science and safety of electrolysis—on your own schedule, in the comfort of your home.
3
Gain Hands-On Experience In Person
Once your theory is complete, you’ll move on to the practical portion of the program: 200 hours of in-person training with your chosen instructor. This is where you’ll refine your skills, work with real equipment, and gain the confidence you need to succeed as a Certified Electrologist.
Excellence takes time—no corners cut
We’re often asked why our program is longer than others. The answer is simple: we’re invested in your long-term success. With over 50 years in the industry, we’ve seen firsthand that fewer hours just don’t provide the depth of experience needed. Our 200 practical hours ensure you graduate fully prepared—with the skills, confidence, and quality of work that lead to strong client retention and word-of-mouth referrals.
You deserve training that sets you up for a lasting, thriving career in electrolysis.
