Re-Enrollment FAQ

How long does the 4-hour course take?

Most students finish in about 4 hours. Each section is designed to cover the required topics thoroughly while staying focused and easy to complete.

Do I need to take the course again for my next renewal cycle?

Yes. Continuing education is tied to your renewal cycle, not a permanent certification. TDLR requires human trafficking training for each renewal cycle, and sanitation is also part of the required CE for eligible licensees.

Will you report my CE hours to TDLR?

Yes. As a TDLR-approved provider, we report your completed CE hours directly to TDLR. TDLR maintains the official CE record used for license renewal. (Posting time can vary; many providers state up to 24 hours.)

When do I need to take this course?

Continuing education hours are applied toward your license renewal. If you are renewing your license, you should complete your CE before you submit your renewal so your hours can be posted to your TDLR record in time.

Who qualifies for the Texas 4-hour cosmetology CE course?

This 4-hour course is designed for Texas cosmetology and barbering licensees who have held a Texas license for 15 years or less. For licensees under 15 years, TDLR requires 4 total CE hours, including 1 hour sanitation and 1 hour human trafficking awareness.

How do I complete the 4-hour Texas Cosmetology CE for my license renewal?

To complete your 4-hour CE, log in using your email and password, then select RE-ENROLL (or TAKE COURSE AGAIN) from your dashboard. Confirm your information, complete all four required hours (1 hour Sanitation, 1 hour Human Trafficking Awareness, and 2 additional approved CE hours), and download your Certificate of Completion when finished.

Is there a grace period if my license is already expired?

TDLR rules and renewal status can vary depending on whether the renewal is timely or late. The safest approach is to complete the CE before renewing so your record is updated and you remain compliant.

What if I’m not sure whether I’m under 15 years?

If you’re unsure, check your licensure history in your TDLR account. If you have held your license for 15 years or more, you may qualify for the 2-hour CE instead.

Will I receive a certificate? Does it “expire”?

Yes — you will receive a Certificate of Completion for your records after finishing the course. The course itself does not “expire,” but CE hours are used to satisfy your license renewal requirements for the applicable renewal period.
