Nail Specialist Program — classroom

Hybrid Schedule

Train without putting your life on hold.

The Nail Specialist program runs on a hybrid model — your hands-on practicals are scheduled in-person across ~11 weeks, while the theory portion is completed online on your own schedule. Most students keep their day job and graduate ready to take the Florida State Board exam.

In Person

2 days / week

Hands-on practicals at our Fort Pierce campus. Real clients, real tools, real chairs — no simulations.

Online

Theory on your time

Complete the theory portion online when it works for you — mornings, evenings, weekends. No fixed class times.

Graduate

~11 weeks

Most schools take 8–12 months. You'll be ready for the state board in about 11 weeks.
