Is This Career a Fit in South Dakota?

In licensed states, expect several months to over a year from enrollment to board approval: theory study, varies - no dedicated state license at school, exam prep, then application processing. Part-time students should plan longer.

Theory vs school: Structured online theory helps before or during in-person hours, but it does not replace board-required clinical training. See the online electrolysis theory course for modules and enrollment - pricing stays on that page only.
