Where can I find my customer ID number and why do I need it? Your customer ID number is located in the top left hand corner on the back of your book. Due to new rule changes, all

individuals receiving a home-study book must be issued a unique customer ID. Where can I find my book code and why do I need it?

Your book code is a two letter code located on the back cover and answer sheet of your home-study book. You will need this code in order to ensure you are taking the correct test when submitting your test answers online. The Ohio State Cosmetology and Barber Board requires that we send out 5 different versions of each book. This means that you are likely to have a different book than your colleagues and friends. It is very important that you select the correct book code when submitting your answers via our website at EliteLearning.com/Book Why are there no questions and answers listed for the online test?
