The NCEA Prep Class is based on the NCEA Training Manual. The NCEA Training Manual focuses on topics that NCEA recognize as areas that require specific attention for the continued development of today’s skin care professional. Candidates are encouraged to enroll at NCEA Approved Training Facilities where additional training is provided in these areas and scientific concepts.

Three sections of the Training Manual address “soft” skills.  Specifically, Sections 1, 5 and 6 discuss professional characteristics, risk management and business aspects of professional skin care. These skills may not have been addressed in other classroom environments. NCEA has set soft skills for the national standard for the NCEA Certified Professional. This is an introduction into a fundamental knowledge base as professionals take their careers forward.
