March 31, 2012 Is the Deadline for GA Cosmetology License Renewals
Cosmetology schools in Georgia—including Cosmetologycampus.com, an approved cosmetology continuing education online provider—are scrambling to get cosmetologist to finish their mandatory continuing education (CE) in order to renew their GA cosmetology licenses by the March 13, 2012 deadline.
The Georgia Board of Cosmetology, as with all cosmetology state boards, mandates that every cosmetologist must be licensed to practice cosmetology in the state. The license must be renewed every two years. To do that the license holder is required to complete five hours of continuing-education (CE) credit: three hours of health and safety courses developed by the Georgia Department of Technical and Adult Education (DTAE), and two hours of other courses in health and safety or in a related area of practice such as industry trends, computer skills, or business management. The license holder can also substitute attendance in a trade/product show (duly registered with the state board) for the other courses to complete the remaining two hours.
The Georgia Board of Cosmetology does not conduct continuing-education classes; instead it provides a list of approved CE course providers (not all cosmetology schools in Georgia are on the list), from which the license holder can choose.
Cosmetologycampus.com is of the approved cosmetology continuing education online provider and the cosmetology portal of e-learning hub 360training.com that offers a suite of 5-hour complete course packages, each duly approved by and containing all the requirements (including the required 3-hour DTAE course) of the Georgia state board. The student, for instance, can simply choose the Georgia 5 Hour Cosmetology Success Package or the Georgia 5 Hour Cosmetology Career Package to complete all his/her CE requirements for the license renewal.
Alternatively, the student can forego the course packages and opt for the individual courses. She can get the 3-hour HIV Prevention and Sanitation (a DTAE course) and combine that with a 2-hour course—the 2-hour Hair Color Made Simple, for instance—to complete the 5-hour CE requirement.
