1 COSMETOLOGY MASTER PLAN OF INSTRUCTION Ruth Brown, Instructor Phyllis Hunter, Instructor MISSION: The mission of Fort Myers Institute of Technology is to provide high quality career and technical training, in order to prepare students for current and emerging industries, delivered by a professional and caring staff in a positive learning environment Michigan Avenue, Fort Myers, Florida (239)

2 Fort Myers Institute of Technology COSMETOLOGY INTRODUCTION The Cosmetology program utilizes both theory and practical application and is designed to help students gain the knowledge needed to pass the Cosmetology State Board examination and become employed as a licensed hairdresser, hairstylist, or cosmetologist. The program offers a broad foundation of skills and knowledge to prepare students for employment. An appropriate amount of time is spent in each area to thoroughly cover instructional material as well as necessary work experience. Leadership, communication, human relations and employability skills are an integral part of this program. Each student must complete a number and type of required services and must complete written exams before applying to take the State Board examination. PROGRAM MISSION The mission of the Cosmetology program is to prepare students with the knowledge needed to pass the State Board of Cosmetology examination and to attain the skills necessary to become employed as a licensed hairstylist. The focus is on student and industry needs by updating training and working closely with advisory committee members to keep current with industry changes. PROGRAM PHILOSOPHY We believe in providing an active learning environment that develops technical skills, academic skills, and effective work habits by using innovative teaching methods to help students to meet the industry standards. ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS To register you must meet with a counselor in the Student Services Department located in C Building. Applicants must be at least 16 years of age and should be academically, physically, and emotionally capable of meeting the demands of the program. Applicants make initial application through the Admissions Office. A minimum skills evaluation is part of the admission process. A high school diploma or GED is not required to enroll. However, it is very strongly recommended that all students complete either a high school diploma or a GED prior to program completion. The Cosmetology program requires 8 th grade math, 8 th grade language, and 9 th grade reading TABE levels in order to receive a certificate of completion. It is very strongly recommended that all students score not less than one grade level below required scores before enrolling in the program. No additional evaluation is required to enroll in this program. No program prerequisites are required for program enrollment other than an interest in the program, a commitment to enter the workplace at the completion of the program, and a desire to succeed in the program. When meeting with the counselor, students are required to provide two documents that confirm Florida residency status for tuition purposes. High school students who meet the requirements for career dual enrollment may register at FMIT if they have been recommended by their high school. Students should speak with their school counselor for details. Page 1 of 22

3 TEST OF ADULT BASIC EDUCATION All applicants for this program take a state-mandated TABE assessment prior to enrollment (documented A.A., A.S., A.A.S., B.A., and B.S. degreed persons are exempt from this requirement). *Florida Statue exempts the following prospective students from completing the entry-level assessment of basic academic skills: Applicants, who possess a college degree, associate in applied science or higher. Students who demonstrate readiness for public post-secondary education as stipulated by Florida Statute Students who pass a state or national industry certification or licensure exam that is aligned with the educational program of enrollment An adult student who is enrolled in a state-approved apprenticeship program Students requesting exemption from the basic skills assessment must provide documentation such as official transcripts and certificates. According to Florida Department of Education rules, students who fail all or parts of the TABE may only retest using a different TABE version after 60 documented hours of remediation in the Applied Academics for Adult Education (AAAE) lab or three months if not attending AAAE. Students may not retake the same test version for six months. We, therefore, strongly recommend that students test early, especially for licensure programs, in order to allow time for remediation and retesting should the need arise. Students who do not meet the minimum TABE scores set by the Florida Department of Education for their program must begin attending remediation classes in the AAAE lab prior to or at the time of enrollment in the program for at least one block a day and make acceptable progress as determined by the AAAE instructor. Students should meet state-mandated TABE requirements by the time they have completed the 1 st semester of the program. Students who do not meet statemandated TABE scores may not receive a certificate of completion as per Florida Department of Education rules. Applicants transferring TABE, PERT, or CPT scores from other testing centers must do so by having an official score report sent directly to the Admissions Office prior to enrollment. Scores brought in by hand will not be accepted. TABE scores are good for two years and must be valid at the time of enrollment. TABE scores that expire during continuous enrollment remain valid until the end of such enrollment. Under continuous enrollment, students must be enrolled at least 50% of one semester per school year and may miss no more than one consecutive semester. Continuous enrollment applies to attendance in a single program.

Post-secondary students with disabilities must self-identify, present documentation, required accommodations if needed, and develop a plan with their post-secondary service provider. Accommodations received in post-secondary education may differ from those received in secondary education. Accommodations change the way the student is instructed. Students with disabilities may need accommodations in such areas as instructional methods and materials, assignments and assessments, time demands and schedules, learning environment, assistive technology, and special communication systems. Documentation of the accommodations requested and services provided are maintained in a confidential file. TUITION Tuition is charged for adult students at a reasonable rate that may vary slightly from year to year and is due prior to the first day of each semester. Current fee information is available from the Admissions Office. Tuition is waived for eligible high school dual-enrolled students. Failure to pay all fees due at the time class begins will result in the student not being able to attend class and/or clinical. CLASS SCHEDULE Daytime certificated classes meet Monday through Friday from 8:00 A.M. until 2:30 P.M. for adult post-secondary students. This amounts to 30 hours of classroom instruction per week. Lunch breaks are 30 minutes in length. ATTENDANCE POLICY In an effort to develop appropriate work ethics, FMIT students are expected to attend all class sessions. As is expected in the workplace, when it is necessary to be absent due to illness or emergency situations, all students are to notify the instructor on or before the date of absence. The student attendance policy for each post-secondary program is consistent with industry standards. Campus attendance is kept via a computerized system. It is the responsibility of the student to log in and out in order to receive credit for class time. This allows the school to keep accurate attendance records for the actual number of hours and minutes attended. Page 3 of 22

5 All adult students are expected to be in attendance at least 90% of their scheduled hours during each semester. Adult students failing to maintain the 90% attendance standard will not be permitted to continue in their program and may be required to sit out one full semester, unless administration approves to waive the 90% standard based on special circumstances. Absences A student who is absent for ten (10) consecutive class sessions will be withdrawn from enrollment in his/her program. A student withdrawn for absenteeism must petition administration to return. Students exhibiting a pattern of consecutive absences less than six days will be subject to dismissal as determined by a School Intervention Team. School Intervention Team meetings will be held as necessary to attempt to alleviate issues resulting in excessive absences and to counsel the student of possible alternatives and consequences. Students who are late for class, including returning late from lunch, must clock in. Students who leave school early must notify their instructor and clock out. This time out of class is recorded as time absent and is counted against the required 90% attendance. Excessive tardies or early departures will be reported to the Student Affairs Specialist and will result in a meeting with the School Attendance Intervention Team. Adult students who know they will be out of school for an extended period of time (5 days or longer) may apply for a Leave of Absence from their program. A Leave of Absence will be granted only once during a twelve month period. STUDENTS WHO EXERCISE A LEAVE OF ABSENCE MAY HAVE TO EXTEND THEIR TIME IN THEIR PROGRAM AND PAY ADDITIONAL FEES. Leaving Campus During School Hours Students should notify their instructor when leaving campus early. This is for the safety of students and to allow the instructor to best utilize instruction resources. PLAN OF INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICES Teaching Methods This program has a planned sequence of instruction and the students follow a prepared curriculum that consists of classroom and lab assignments. Students will be assisted in the learning process throughout the assignment. Students may proceed at their own pace with hands-on assignments. Student hands-on activities will be performed on manikins and to the public in a salon atmosphere. The services performed on public patrons will be checked to follow the students progress and suggestions will be given for improvement purposes. Students are supplied materials needed to work on the public in the lab area. Students are responsible for personal tools. Safety A basic outline of safety standards and practices is covered along with continues implementation of safety principles. Evaluation Exams will be given on a weekly basis consisting of theory and practical questions. Students are required to complete a number and type of services which a checklist is used to evaluate their practical skills. The instructor observes services performed on manikins and on the public for the purpose of evaluating the students progress. The weekly grade is based on theory exams, practical exam, or practical performance and employability skills. Work-Based Activities Work-based learning activities play an integral part of the curriculum of FMIT s career-technical training programs. These activities are planned with two objectives in mind. First, the activity provides students with the opportunity to develop and apply a real world experience using the knowledge and skills attained in the program. Second, the activity provides the instructor with objective input from potential employers or customers of program graduates. Each work- Page 4 of 22

6 based activity has a written instructional plan outlining objectives, experiences, competencies, and evaluation required during the activity. Work-based activities are program specific and may include: Unpaid in-school shop activities to provide customer service opportunities under the direct supervision of the program instructor. Unpaid job shadowing experiences that may include in-school or off-campus employer-based experiences under the supervision of a qualified employer representative who is working closely with the program instructor. Paid or unpaid cooperative training experiences conducted at the employer s work location under the supervision of a qualified employer representative and under the direction of the program instructor. Cooperative Education Cooperative training is available for students and coordinated by the instructor and career specialist. Cooperative training is for students who have shown competence in program training that indicates readiness for placement in an on-the-job program. High school students participating in the cooperative job placement program must be in at least the 12 th grade. To be eligible for a cooperative education experience, students must have completed one-half of the required program hours and requirements. Students may be returned to the program for additional training if they do not function satisfactorily on the job or when the cooperative agreement is terminated at the request of the student, parent, employer, or program instructor. Veterans will be accepted into the program in accordance with the Department of Veterans Affairs approved program. Additional information regarding co-op opportunities may be obtained from the program instructor or career specialist. Job Shadowing Job shadowing experiences, or volunteer experiences, are available to students as part of their program training. These experiences are designed to give the student actual hands-on experience doing a variety of related tasks. Length and type of experiences will vary. The program instructor determines appropriateness of the experience. Additional information regarding job-shadowing experiences may be obtained from the program instructor or career specialist. GRADING PROCEDURE Teacher Grading Procedure Students must complete the course with an average of 80% or higher to receive a certificate of completion from Cosmetology. Students' attendance, behavior, written work, practical assignments, clinic duties, attitude, etc. are recorded on the employability record. Nine week grades are computed as follows: 1/3 grade average of theory tests 1/3 practical tests 1/3 employability skill record Students' practical work is evaluated, according to set standards, before working on a patron in the clinic. Students must complete the required services, tests, and hours before papers can be sent for state board examination. Final exams must be passed with an 85% grade or higher to complete the program. County Grading Policy All student work will be taken into consideration when determining student grades. Practical and written tests, group discussions, written work, checklists, homework, student projects, and employability skills are all representative means which may be used to determine student grades.
