BUFFALO
GROVE, IL—MODERN SALON Media has named the 2017
class of “Excellence in Education” honorees in its seventh annual program
recognizing leadership and best practices among cosmetology schools. International Institute of Cosmetology of Plainville, Connecticut,
was chosen to represent excellence in the category of The Next Level. MODERN SALON Publisher Steve Reiss announced the
honorees during the AACS (American Association of Cosmetology Schools) 2017
convention in Las Vegas on October 21st.
Honorees were determined
based on key criteria in each category, and grouped according to number of
locations. Honorees were chosen in each category—one individual school
location, and a multi-location school organization.
“We
received applications from cosmetology schools across the country and look
forward to celebrating all the 2017 Excellence in Education honorees and
sharing their stories. It is truly a
great time to pursue a beauty education and career, and the program at International
Institute of Cosmetology exemplifies that fact,” MODERN SALON Editorial Director Michele
Musgrove says.
The
International Institute of Cosmetology is thrilled to be recognized by Modern
Excellence in Education- Next Level. In an effort to fill a void for beauty
professionals within Connecticut for Advanced education the International
Institute of Cosmetology launched the Advanced Academy within their school. The
focus was to bring booming west coast talent to the east coast in a comfortable
school setting that is accessible without attending a large hair show. To date
the advanced academy has had popular artists such as;
@larisalove,@harandmakeupbysteph,@popethebarber and @domdomhair. Carmelo
Gugliotti, founder of the International Institute of Cosmetology prides himself
on his motto, “Our Success depends on your success” Feeling fortunate to
provide these classes for their current students, alumni and stylists
throughout the region, we are eager to see what 2018 brings for the Advanced
Academy.
Sharing stories of innovation, inspiration and
collaboration from a diverse group of leading schools is an important part of
MODERN SALON’s “Excellence in Education” mission, Musgrove explains. “We want
to help spread the word about the exceptional work cosmetology schools are
doing to help launch beautiful careers. We hope the professional salon industry
and their communities will join us in celebrating them.”
