Founded in 2000, the NCEA has been defining and conveying standards of practice, while educating the industry and the public. The first Esthetician Code of Ethics was created in 2003, and the National Esthetician Certification was launched in 2007. The NCEA Certified credential is not a “one-and-done certification,” with ongoing advanced requirements in laser and light therapy, radio-frequency, ultrasound, oncology esthetics and alternative therapies. Maintaining the NCEA Certified credential demonstrates your commitment to advancing competency standards, and promoting the best possible outcomes to minimize consumer risk. The NCEA Commission on Accreditation (COA) was formed to facilitate and supervise the continuing education requirements of the skin care professional for recertification and/or relicensure.
