However, Florida requires less training hours than many other licensed states. Just 320 hours of training is required before electrology students may sit for the state electrology licensing exam and become licensed electrologists in Florida. This means that you may choose from our 600 hour and 350 hour training programs if you wish to become a licensed electrologist in Florida. Don't hesitate to contact us today for advice on choosing the right program for you and find out how you can become a licensed electrologist in Florida.

Both of these programs are delivered in two modules. All the theory instruction can be completed online and while the hands-on practical training is done in-school. Theory and practical training modules may be taken separately or together. Both programs exceed training standards in Florida and are very comprehensive.

All electrology programs at AIE programs are offered on an open-enrollment basis, so you may start any day you wish and you can complete your training on a flexible schedule. It is possible to complete your training in as little as 4 months or take as long as 24 months. The flexibility of our programs makes the choice all yours! As an AIE graduate, after passing the state exam you'll have the credibility that automatically comes with the professional designation of "Licensed Electrologist."
