• Mirage Spa Education
  This nail technician school has marketed itself as stay-at-home moms and students who have a time restriction and are looking for a career change. It is one of those nail technician schools that does not require students to attend the classes at specific times. The course can be completed as per the convenience of the student. There is no term or semester of the course and the student can sign up and begin the course at any time. The classes are taught through online videos and students are required to perform certain tasks and assignments. These tasks and assignments are done on practice hands and then mailed to the school for grading. Along with a video reviewing the work, the instructor mails the work back to the student.
• Universal Class
  The courses offered by Universal Class are slightly different than the other online schools of nail technology as the courses are marketed towards working with technicians who already have a certificate. For most state boards, the school’s lessons count towards Continuing Education Units (CEUs). This makes the license valid and usable. Students who are hoping to take the advantage of these online continuing education credits should check with their state board of cosmetology. This ensures that the credits will count while licensing.
