National NCEA Certification Program for Skin Care Professionals

NCEA Certified

The path to becoming NCEA Certified begins with knowing if you meet the candidate requirements. Complete the application with supporting documents, and submit them for verification. Prepare for and take the National Certification Exam. This entire program can be completed in as little as 6-8 weeks.

Purchase of the Training Pack is a mandatory first step. The Training Pack includes the application, forms and Training Manual. The Candidate Application and supporting documents are then submitted for Records Verification, with the applicable fee. Once your records are verified you are then provided with the Authorization to Test letter. (ATT)

As part of completing your application you will study with the Training Manual which helps you to review your knowledge in preparation for the exam. You also need to review the Candidate Information Bulletin (CIB) which outlines the exam content, and provides some sample questions. To further assist you, NCEA Approved Training Facilities offer the Certification Prep Class, for a fee.

The final step is to schedule and pay for your National NCEA Certification exam. Obtaining a 75% passing grade earns you the right to call yourself "NCEA Certified". You will receive your Certification Card and Certificate, along with your Certified Benefits Directory shortly thereafter.

The Face & Body Spa  Healthy Aging Conference and Expo®    
annouces that a  National NCEA Certification Prep Class will be offered
on Saturday, August 16th at Moscone North, San Francisco, CA.
      

San Francisco, CA June 2008   

The Face & Body Spa  Healthy Aging Conference and Expo® (www.FaceandBody.com), now in its 16th year, announces  that on Saturday, August 16th,  at Moscone North in San Francisco, California, a National NCEA Certification Prep Class will be available.
"NCEA's National Certification Program was founded on the principle of raising the esthetician's education to the level of a licensed Master Esthetician, currently only available in Utah and Virginia.    As more skin care professionals voluntarily become certified, the NCEA will have the numbers to urge state regulatory boards  to take a closer look at increasing educational requirements and their exisiting statutes and/or rules, "says NCEA's executive director, Susanne S. Warfield. Currently the NCEA National Certification Program has over 500 Candidates in the process of becoming certified.

"We are extremely pleased to be offering the National NCEA Certification Prep Class at Face & Body this year," says Melinda Taschetta-Millane, conference director for Face & Body and editor-in-chief of Skin Inc. magazine.  "Face & Body's conference program, and Skin Inc. magazine, place a large emphasis on the need for continuing education, and we feel this class is an ideal fit with our educational philosophy."
   

Face & Body, August 16-18, also offers a product-neutral Advanced Education Conference Program and provides a forum for spa professionals and those involved in the industry including estheticians, massage therapists, medical therapists, plastic surgeons, dermatologists and other medical professionals, to connect with their colleagues who serve the healthy aging, wellness, personal care, fitness, cosmetic and nutrition industries.
