Salons accepting student interns must have on file what document?

• A. Training agreement
• B. Internship contract
• C. Work authorization
• D. Affiliation letter

Answer: (A)

Internships in salons require a formal training agreement on file between the school and the hosting salon. This document lays out who supervises the student, the hours to be completed, the tasks allowed, and how the student’s progress will be evaluated, all in line with the esthetics program curriculum. Having a training agreement ensures regulatory compliance and makes sure the internship hours count toward licensure. It also protects both the student and the salon by defining responsibilities and supervision standards. Other documents like an internship contract, work authorization, or an affiliation letter aren’t the standard board-approved record for internships in this field.
