Those who successfully complete the course receive a certificate of attendance. Through the end of the year, a special rate is available to those who register for the Wellness Track.

Four scholarships are now available to LEs and LMTs who wish to enroll in the program. Color Up is offering two partial scholarships (50%) and two full scholarships (for one LE and one LMT) to attend the Master Course. Scholarship recipients will also receive the Skincare Retail Starter Kit or Massage Retail Kit complimentary.
