Medinail Learning Center (MLC) has launched a series of monthly webinars for nail techs. The webinars are offered to two separate groups each month: education for all nail technicians and continuing education for MLC’s graduates and current students.
The series of four webinars, titled Safe Salons, The Most Successful Salons Ever, is open to all. “This series is designed to take an individual nail technician or salon to the next step in their success and career growth using safety as the key,” says Janet McCormick, vice president of educational development for Medinail Learning Center in Chattanooga, Tenn. The first webinar, offered in April, is titled Why Become a Safe Salon and is taught by McCormick; the second, in May, is titled Top Ten Reasons Many Nail Salons Cause Infections, taught by Dr. Robert Spalding, DPM; the third, in June, is titled Why Autoclave?, and is also taught by Dr. Spalding; the fourth, in July, is titled Marketing a Safe Salon and is taught by McCormick.
