The esthetician program is delivered in a format which combines in-school-theory, practical and work-based training, all designed to meet the competency standards and profile defined by the industry. Practical demonstration and student participation should always be integrated with classroom sessions. Safe working practices, though not always specified in each of the competencies and learning tasks, are an implied part of the program and should be stressed throughout the training. This program outline includes a list of recommended reference resources that are available to support the learning objectives and the minimum practical requirements needed to support instruction. The esthetician program is designed to be modularized to allow students to take any combination of modules, or the full program and to allow schools to provide any combination of modules. There is some overlap between certain modules, so examinations should be provided in a way that tests all necessary skills with minimal overlap. Finally, this program requires knowledge about various branches of science for estheticians. Each module details science components integrated into the learning outcomes and objectives. Appendix A provides an outline of which specific science topics are necessary for the relevant modules. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Program Outline was launched under the direction of Personal Services Industry Human Resources Committee (PSI-HR) with funding from the The Province of British Columbia via the Cosmetology Industry Association of British Columbia, and prepared by Sage Transitions with the assistance of the industry participants listed below.

Natural nail must be filed aggressively -“shredded” -- to make MMA stick ** No aggressive filing is necessary. Some people can wear it primerless (not recommended, but possible) Difficult to remove. Methyl methacrylate (MMA) Hazardous & Illegal Cure Volatility Adhesion *MMA is stronger than natural nails. If a break occurs, the natural nail can be severely injured or torn off. **This “shredding” accounts for much of the damage associated with MMA usage on nails. Unfortunately, techs trained on MMA may continue filing the nail down too aggressively after they change over to legitimate products, not know that itʼs no longer necessary. This highlights the importance of product education. Esthetics Training Appendices 197
