What is required for a non-resident nail technician to become Minnesota certified?

To become Minnesota certified as a non-resident nail technician, the requirement is the completion of cosmetology school in a state or country that has the same or greater school hour requirements. This ensures that the technician has received a level of education and training that aligns with Minnesota's standards for nail technicians.

Minnesota has specific regulations concerning the minimum number of hours required for training in nail technology. Accepting applicants who have completed comparable or more extensive training helps maintain a consistent level of professionalism and competency within the industry. Therefore, this requirement is in place to protect public health and safety by ensuring that all practicing nail technicians have adequately prepared for their duties.

While other options suggest lower or different requirements, they do not meet the necessary standards set forth by the state of Minnesota.
