e-File Diploma

This e-File Diploma is designed for qualified and experienced nail technicians who are confident in working with nail files. This course will teach you how to safely work with e-files and covers:

• The refining and shaping of overlays and nail extensions.
• The removal of an overlay and nail extension.
• Reducing the length of a nail extension.
• Using the file to speed up your removal time of overlays and nail extensions.

When you enrol on this course there is the option to add on a live 2-3 hour interactive session. This is a face-to-face training session that is accessed through a virtual classroom, where your tutor will clearly explain the theory and demonstrate how to perform the treatment. You’ll get the chance to discuss any issues you may be experiencing, and gain invaluable feedback from your tutor. This method of training is ideal because you can log in from anywhere, providing you have a reliable internet connection, and on any device, which saves you the time and cost of travelling to a training centre. This course is for nail technicians who are looking to keep skills up to date, speed up treatment time and maximise profits.
