About Course

Turn your certification into a booked, profitable practice in Québec. Six modules take you from launch foundations through services and equipment sourcing, client workflows and automation, website health and search visibility (organic, AI and paid), social media, and first-year finances — anchored to the rules that apply to estheticians here.

Each module ends with a practice workshop where you produce a real deliverable for your own business — a launch checklist, an equipment plan and supplier shortlist, a client journey with automated follow-ups, a website and search audit, a first ad campaign with a 90-day content calendar, and a first-year plan — followed by a quiz and an essay. Business start-up support from the IPL Lab team continues after the course; social media management and automation are available as a separately billed service.
