Understanding HLO Senate Bill 217 and Compliance
The landscape of Oregon cosmetology changed significantly with the passage of Senate Bill 217. This bill mandates that estheticians and other skin care specialists undergo specialized Bloodborne Pathogens (BBP) training to mitigate risks associated with cross-contamination and infectious diseases. The Oregon Health Licensing Office (HLO) and the Board of Cosmetology now require proof of this training as part of the professional renewal process. Failure to provide a valid certificate during a routine salon inspection can lead to significant disciplinary action. ACE provides an OSHA-compliant curriculum that aligns perfectly with these state-specific regulatory demands, ensuring you remain in good standing.
100% Video-Based Training for Maximum Efficiency
Why spend hours reading dry PDF documents when you can learn through engaging multimedia? ACE offers a 100% video-based training experience. This “no-reading” approach allows Oregon estheticians to absorb critical safety information through high-quality visual demonstrations and professional instruction. The course covers blood exposure protocols, needle stick safety, and the proper sterilization techniques required under Oregon law. At just $12.95, it is the best value in the state. Plus, you can use coupon code ace10 at checkout to save even more on your certification, making it the most affordable way to stay compliant in 2026.
Secure Certificate Storage and OAR 817 Compliance
One of the most stressful aspects of a state board audit is locating old paperwork. Under Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR 817-008-0000), practitioners are required to maintain records of their safety and sanitation training for up to five years. ACE Training Platforms solves this problem by providing automatic, secure digital certificate storage. Once you complete the course, your record is assigned a unique ID and stored in our cloud database. If an HLO inspector visits your salon, you can instantly access and print your verifiable documentation, providing total peace of mind during any inspection or renewal period.
