"Taking the training online was great. Being able to do the training from home makes alot of difference. I would have had to travel 2hrs one way, twice a week for approx. 5 weeks to get my certificate. The amount of money involved for the gas there and back, the travel time, maybe a stay in a hotel would have been outrageous. With the online, I stayed home and worked on my own schedule. The only cost involved was the cost of the course and the nail trainer. The tutoring was great. Jennifer was very helpful and patient. Sort of an online friend. Being able to email pictures of my work also helped with the cost, cutting down the mailing. A good camera and lots of hand snaps really works. Overall the online course was the best for me, practical and economical. Thank you for helping me get the training that I had been putting off because of the inconvenience of other courses." Sandra F.Edson, Ab
"I am very glad that The Academy of Nail Design offers the “NT” program online. I was actually very excited to hear about the program when I found out, I've search but I couldn't find an "NT" program out there that was promising and reliable. The "NT" online program allows you to have a flexible time to learn your materials and finish your projects or assignments at your own pace, and that's what I love so much about it! It worked perfectly with my busy schedule as a Mom.
I have learned so much from this program. Jennifer is very knowledgeable and helpful. I could ask anything to her, no question was a stupid question, and I thank her for that. Jennifer is awesome! Overall, this is a wonderful program. What more could you ask for with this program- it is very convenient, the cost is reasonable and they break it down into payments so you can afford it. Totally recommend it to other Moms out there or ladies interested in getting into the salon business."

"Being a busy stay at home Mom I could not afford to take a week off, of my kids, to devote time in a classroom to learn. So I was able to become a Certified Nail Tech, but on my time, online. The program gave me the opportunity to learn as fast or a slow as I needed to and financially was more up my alley. Practice, Research, Practice, Practice, Research and then some more practice. The online program makes you become a more informed and well practiced Tech because you really have to work at it if you want to succeed. I had a 3 year plan to be at full capacity with clients that happened in 5 months! Now my next goal is to become an educator!" Diane Meier Medicine Hat, Alberta
"I had always wanted to learn to do nails, but was not able to attend regular in class sessions, due to family obligations and small children. The courses were always long periods of time and they were never at convenient hours or during the right time of the year for my schedule. I found this course online and took a leap of faith....one that paid off in a big way! The learning experience with this class was the most enjoyable and convenient that I have experienced. As someone that has taken formal education in the past, I found the support and the attention to questions, and the provided information to be outstanding and very enjoyable. I feel that I learned more from the online lessons than I would have from a classroom environment, as I could learn when I was ready to focus and was responsible to research some of my own information. Any questions that I would have were always answered quickly and sometimes with a little light hearted humor thrown in! Thanks to this course I have a new set of skills and a fun career opportunity, that I look forward to exploring. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone interested in taking this course."G.DuchakRed Deer, Alberta, Canada
Hi there, I just wanted to give some feedback. Your course is wonderful, I am a 29 year old stay at mother of two. It is hard doing things at home let alone finding time to get out and go to school.Your course has given me the opportunity to learn from home, and it is very informative, all of your products are great, my clients really enjoy them. Thanks for the opportunity your company has provided me with hopefully the rest of the world will catch on.I think one of the most important factors to mention, is that all I have to do is e-mail Jennifer with any questions, and no matter how silly the questions are, she responds very quickly making the entire process much more enjoyable, I get a sense of ease that all my questions and issues will be addressed, and there are never any issues that go left without being dealt with,Thanks so much Donna B.Oakville, ON
I wanted to thank you for the opportunity to be able to take the nail technician course online, It was easy and affordable. For someone like me who lives in a very small community and working out, this was very convenient as I could do it on my time. I Thank YOU Jennifer and the girls on the other end of the phone for always having the time and patience to answer my many and sometimes silly questions, you always made me feel welcome to call anytime and were very helpful. Hats off to you all!! I am now doing nails out of my home, Its awsome...Yours Truly,T. Breton AB
For those of you who are thinking about an on-line course with the Academy of Nail Design I recommend it highly. I went at my own pace, I had little interruption and most of all the fact that I didn't have to travel for the course was most satisfying. Jennifer was very helpful and any questions I had she was very explicit with her answers. Jennifer made me feel more reassured and she always had a positive word about my work that I felt very enthusiastic and confident to complete the program. When everything was successfully done and receiving my certificate is a wonderful accomplishment.
Best wishes! Lisa, Mississauga, Ontario.
