2 OBJECTIVE was founded to create the most successful entrepreneurs in the professional beauty and body care industry. Our curriculum entails practical knowledge gained from today s most successful masters in hair care, skincare, makeup, massage, total body care, and retail service. We have created an atmosphere of excellence where students are able to flourish under the guidance of superior educators. Our faculty draws from many years of professional experience in the beauty industry. The educators maintain their expertise with intensive educational seminars where they are updated with the exam information and techniques utilizing today s most advanced methodologies. The institute places great emphasis on well being, which relates to the individual as well as the environment. This is reflected in our exclusive use of Aveda pure flower and plant essences. Students are taught the relationship between personal beauty, well being, and environment. RECYCLING is committed to the role of corporate environmental leader and strives to promote the health and sustainability of the earth through education, commitment, action, and accountability throughout our entire network. SCHOOL CLOSINGS In the event must close during normal business hours due to inclement weather or any other emergency, students will be made aware through an all school announcement. Should it be necessary to close the school before the school day begins, the institute will alert students through its Emergency Alert Notification system. No clock hours will be accrued during a closure and the student s contract end date will be extended by the same amount of time. PHYSICAL DEMANDS OF THE INDUSTRY The physical demands of the beauty and wellness profession require a healthy body and mind. Good health is a basic element for living. Without it one cannot work efficiently or enjoy a pleasurable life. As a health and beauty professional you should be a living example so that you increase your value to yourself, to your employer, and to the community. You should practice stress management through relaxation, rest, and exercise. Avoid substances that can negatively affect your good health, such as cigarettes, alcohol, and drugs. Being a cosmetologist, esthetician, and massage therapist demands standing on your feet for long periods of time and working long hours. Persons who cannot stand for long periods of time could choose a career, such as a nail technician, which requires sitting with good posture. Therefore, good health, personal hygiene, and good posture are important demands in the cosmetology field.
