Program Requirements

The Esthetician Program consists of 26 courses. These courses are conducted in different learning environments; classroom, computer lab, esthetic lab and student clinic. The placement takes place in private spas. Specific courses have attendance requirements (e.g. labs, refer to course outline), however it is strongly recommended that students attend ALL classes to facilitate success. Successful completion of the Esthetic Program requires a minimum “C” grade in all courses.

Students are required to take BSCP certification courses in the second semester, ESTH 125. BSCP certification is an added value for students seeking employment in Esthetic and Cosmetic Industries.

See the Experiential Learning Requirements section for information on work terms, field placements, clinical placements, or other required experiential learning components.

Course Requirements – Course Outlines

Course outlines specify relevant course learning outcomes to be achieved and assessments that measure achievement of that learning. Course outlines also offer a general description of the course, its content, requirements, and required learning resources (e.g., textbooks, equipment/materials). Course outlines also offer a general description of the course, its content, requirements, and learning resources. Course outlines clearly communicate expectations to learners concerning requirements for admission to the course (e.g.., pre- and co-requisites), successful completion of the course, and other course-specific policies and procedures. Ensure you review the course outlines for each of your courses to be aware of requirements and expectations.
