Classes & Workshops
NAIL CLASSES & WORKSHOPS
Nail techs can customize their experience to fit their budget by adding 1, 2 or 3 days of Nail Classes & Workshops at the Smokies Nail Show!
*
Registration payment for any of the 3 extra days of optional Workshops is made directly to each company listed below & is not included with the show ticket.
*
FRIDAY: Extended Workshops
SATURDAY: Workshops & Early Check-in
SUNDAY: Nail Show + Event Day Classes
MONDAY: Workshops
The Workshops
Certificates from these optional Workshops may meet the criteria for North Carolina CEU's providing they have the following printed on them:
1) course title & description
2) date conducted
3) address of location where course was conducted
4) continuing education hours earned
The licensee shall maintain records of attendance at a continuing education course & is responsible for providing proper documentation to the NC State Board of Cosmetology within the required time frame.
Techs should ask their own State Board to verify IF these certificates will count towards CEU's, otherwise we cannot guarantee that they will be accepted.
Email addresses for each nail company are provided in their Workshop listing for techs to ask if what their class material is CEU approved for their particular state.

THIS IS A 1-DAY NAIL SHOW HELD ONLY ON SUNDAY.
*Event Day Classes held during the show are included with your show ticket
The optional paid Workshops are held on Friday, Saturday & Monday.
