About Course

Turn Your Passion for Skin Care Into Professional Skills

E.D.P. School’s 600-hour Esthetics Program provides the theory and hands-on training needed to begin a career in professional skin care.

Following the standard curriculum approved by the New York State Education Department’s Bureau of Proprietary School Supervision (NYSED BPSS), students study health and safety, infection control, anatomy and physiology, skin analysis, facial and body procedures, hair-removal methods, makeup application, product knowledge, client consultation, professional practices, and career readiness.

Supervised practical training helps students build technical skill, sound judgment, sanitation habits, and client-service confidence. Graduates who meet all applicable requirements are prepared to pursue the New York State written and practical examinations for esthetics licensure.

Career Opportunities for Esthetics Graduates

Licensed estheticians may pursue opportunities in salons, day spas, resort and wellness settings, skin-care studios, and other appearance-enhancement businesses; some professionals become self-employed. Typical work includes evaluating clients’ skin, providing permitted facial and body treatments, removing unwanted hair, applying makeup, recommending products, maintaining sanitary work areas, and educating clients about home care.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of skincare specialists is projected to grow 9% from 2025 to 2035, much faster than the average for all occupations, with about 14,200 openings nationwide each year, on average.

Employment and earnings vary by location, experience, schedule, clientele, and compensation structure. New York applicants must complete a 600-hour approved course of study and pass the state written and practical examinations, along with meeting all other state licensing requirements.
