We don’t take shortcuts in education — not in our curriculum, our standards, or the information we provide to our students.
With over 40 years of industry experience, Pat has developed courses rooted in real-world knowledge, proven techniques, and a deep understanding of permanent makeup. Our education focuses on the essential theory, colour knowledge, skin science, techniques and professional standards artists need to build a strong foundation.
While Chanco Beauty no longer provides complete academy or hands-on training programs directly, we continue to provide our extensive online education and training resources. We also work with reputable independent PMU trainers throughout Canada and the USA who can provide the hands-on component for students wishing to continue their training.
This allows students to complete their foundational theory online with Chanco Beauty and then connect with an experienced trainer for practical, hands-on education.

Our Fundamental Courses are comprehensive online theory courses designed to complement hands-on permanent makeup training.
We provide the extensive theory and foundational curriculum required for PMU education, allowing independent trainers to incorporate our online learning into their own training programs and provide the practical, hands-on portion themselves. This gives trainers a strong, structured theory component without having to develop and deliver the entire online curriculum.
Each Fundamental Online Course includes in-depth theory and practice exercises covering essential areas such as skin, colour theory, pigments, equipment, needles, infection control, client consultation, procedure planning, technique, healing and more.
For Students
Our online courses can be completed as the theory component alongside hands-on education provided by an independent Trainer. They are also ideal for artists who have trained elsewhere but want to strengthen their understanding of colour, skin and other essential PMU fundamentals.
Our Fundamental Online Courses do not include hands-on training with live models and are not, on their own, a hands-on certification program.
If you would like to continue into hands-on training, we can connect you with experienced independent PMU trainers across Canada and the USA.
Contact us at [email protected] for more information.
For PMU Trainers
Are you a PMU trainer looking for additional support for your hands-on training?
We offer trainer packages designed to make it easier to provide your students with comprehensive foundational education before they attend your hands-on training.
Packages can include student access to our online theory, suggested course curriculum and lesson plans, advanced colour wheels and training materials, as well as complete student kits based on the course you teach. We provide the online theory and educational resources, while you remain responsible for your students' hands-on instruction, practical assessment and certification requirements.
It’s a simple way to add a structured and extensive theory component to your existing training without having to develop everything yourself.
