-The Breakdown-
Online Instructor Supported Learning:
Two Months
The first seven weeks of the Masters Esthetics Program are entirely online for both full-time and part-time students.
While there are weekly coursework assignment deadlines, this first portion of our course allows students to complete their coursework at their own weekly pace, at any time of the day, and on any day of the week that best works for their schedule. Curriculum is released weekly and students are expected to stay current with their studies based on the course syllabus provided.
Imstructor-Supported Online Learning
Each course has an instructor assigned to support students and keep them on track with the online material. Instructors regularly review and respond to student questions.
Additionally, there is one live online class offered during the online portion of the course, and students are given plenty of notice about its date and time.
All students are considered “full-time” during the online portion of the course. The time students actually spend on coursework each week will vary depending on the individual and the difficulty of the material covered.
In-House Hands-On Learning
After you complete the online portion of the course, you will move to the in-house, hands-on practical training portion of the course at our school facilities.

In-House Hands on Training
Our Masters program follows a competency–based education model with a mastery-focused outcome. This means students build skills progressively throughout the program and are expected to demonstrate mastery of required services and modalities by graduation.
This approach allows students to continue learning and developing skills while ensuring that, by the end of the program, they have the confidence, consistency, and hands-on competence required to graduate and enter the industry.
Total Completion Time
Full-time students complete Masters Esthetics in about four and a half months total
Part-time students complete Masters Esthetics in about seven months total
Please note that ONLY our Masters Esthetics program (our general esthetics program), is offered as a competency-based course.
Our Advanced Esthetics program is not offered as a competency-based course. The state of Oregon requires Advanced Esthetics to be taught as a 500-resident hour course.
