Overview
This course can be completed complementary to your related manicure instruction class, your on-the-job training, or can be accomplished independently. Our manicure interactive course can serve as your solution in preparing for the “Written” portion of your State Board exam.
Within our course you will find:
- Lessons covering key scientific and anatomy topics which most people struggle with on the written test.
- An area of practice questions. These questions and answers, broken up into key topics, will challenge you and improve your exam taking skills. These sections are not timed and you can check your answers as you go. Confidence plays a big role in test taking! The more questions you practice with, the more confident you will be when it is time to take the written part of your State Board.
- An area with simulated tests. These tests are timed and similar to what you will encounter at State Board. They are designed to help you develop written test taking skills.
This course can be viewed on your computer, tablet, phone, or other smart device with Internet access.
