Combination 600 Hour Electrology Program

Our Combination 600 Hour Online Electrology Program meets the requirements of the licensing boards of California, Hawaii and New Mexico. These Combination Programs allow you to complete at least some of your theory training online from the comfort of your own home, saving you time and money. This program is designed to provide the most comprehensive training in permanent hair removal available.

Your home study along with your in-school training is designed to prepare you for your State’s licensing exam. Taking the program in this manner saves significant time and for those with either a long commute or the need for student housing, this saves a significant amount of money as well. Instead of attending our Long Beach campus full time for four months, you can cut your training time by up to a half, by attending our school to complete your practical training.

California residents receive 240 credit hours, Hawaii students receive 200 credit hours and New Mexico residents receive 150 credit hours without leaving home! We’ll ship your textbook to you. Download your study guides and take practice exams online at your convenience.

Features of the Program:

  • Start on-line any time and begin training in a matter of a couple of days.
  • Take as long as you want to complete the theory portion of the program.
