Without Starting From Scratch

Phase I: Core Principles of SMP (40 hrs)
Phase One Curriculum: Online Home Study, designed to equip aspiring permanent makeup artists with the fundamental skills needed for a successful career. This course covers a wide range of topics, beginning with safety protocols, PPE, and set-up/tear-down procedures, ensuring a secure working environment. OSHA employment practices and legal documentation are emphasized to promote ethical and compliant practices.
Phases II & III: Core Principles of SMP
Phase II involves hands-on live training with an MPE® Education Ambassador at their studio location. A series of home practice assignments will be given to reinforce classroom techniques and build skills. Students must complete all lessons in Phase II to advance to Phase III, the final portion to complete this course.
Phase III consists of the practical applications of the skills obtained in your hybrid training experience. Students should complete the written exam only once all learning is complete. Live models should only be performed under the direct supervision of your trainer. Grading metrics are posted for student awareness and preparation in "Phase III". Written and practical testing is intentionally delayed to ensure your trainer can place you in this phase based on skill readiness. Please note: Phase II/III Certificates are issued by each individual trainer, not through the online course.
