You are allowed to complete these hours by correspondence. I have been in the salon business for 14 years and I know how valuable your time and money is to you , that is why I set out to create a home study course that would be comprehensive, but at a low cost to you. You can complete all 8 hours for just $15.00. I also know you have choices when it comes to completing your 8 hours so I hope you will consider the following when choosing your continuing education provider: • We Are on Your Side- We set the standard on quality continuing education at reasonable prices and we were the only provider at Board meetings fighting for you to be allowed to continue to do your hours by correspondence or internet. We succeeded and the result is you get to save time and money and don't have to travel to take your continuing education hours. • We Guarantee the Lowest Price. If somebody beats our price simply enclose their price special or coupon with your test and pay that amount. No questions asked. • Quality - We double check your license number before we transmit your hours to the state. The result is your hours are transmitted accurately. Some providers do not take the time to do this. • Speed - We process your test the very same day it is received and if you complete the course on the internet you instantly receive your certificate of completion. Then we report your hours electronically to the state within 24 hours. I hope you will choose Elite Continuing Education to complete your hours.
