맞춤형화장품조제관리사 자격증 시행실태와 개선방안에 관한 연구

Abstract

Consumers are clearly showing tendencies of preferring ‘customized products’ that reflect their own preferences instead of standardized products for unspecified individuals. This has also affected the field of cosmetics and an age of personally customized smart beauty has begun and customized cosmetics are receiving attention as a new growth engine in the cosmetics industry. The customized cosmetics preparation manager license exam was first implemented on February 22, 2020, and after its implementation, various problems regarding the exam came to the fore. This study points out problems of the customized cosmetics preparation manager license to analyze the opinions of candidates and aid in the improvement of the license exam.The study surveyed a total of 408 people across the country for 15 days. The results of this study can be summarized as follows. More than half responded that exam question improvements were needed and most of the responses stated that the reason for needed improvement was unclear scoring standards. Survey results showed that most responded that practical tests should be adopted and that a ‘cosmetics production practice subject’ should be added. Research participants mostly had opinions that license exam periods were appropriate and this seems to reflect perceptions that an increase in exams would lead to the license becoming indiscriminate with less reliability and professionality.
