I went to the master esthetician program here at RACE and loved it! It’s a great place for your education, the hybrid program works so well and the leaders here are amazing. Amber was so knowledgeable and helpful! Leisje and Sarah were also so great with trying to help with whatever I needed.

I went to school at Renaissance Academie and had a great experience. The teachers all really care about their students & the flexibility of the program helped me be successful. I can’t wait to see where this education takes me!

I have attended the Nail Tech course at Renaissance Academie. I passed my state board exams both written and practical and I want to especially thank the leaders and those who instruct the Mock Prep courses. Also, I benefited greatly from the video provided for my review. I felt extremely prepared and confident and comfortable as can be when being tested. Anything that I slipped up on was only because of my own personal test anxieties. And I knew better because of how well I felt prepared. I want to thank Sonya, Janelle, Maddi and all of my leaders who have been available to me throughout the offered program.
