COSMETOLOGY PROGRAM & COURSES
COSMETOLOGY CURRICULUM
The New England Center for Cosmetology Education offers an intensive program to train students in the field of Cosmetology, including hair design and styling and nail technology. Students will be prepared for the state licensing examination and the beginning of a successful professional career.
Our current progressive curriculum combines with The Paul Mitchell System to deliver a customized, consistent education, including the latest technology and trends in cutting, coloring, and styling. Students will gain a competitive edge while working with one of the most recognized and performance-oriented product lines in the world.
Students will learn to develop good communication skills and learn how to build a loyal clientele by building strong relationships. This program also includes the business aspect of the salon and retail sales while expanding upon the creative side of Cosmetology.
The clinic is integrated into the Cosmetology program after students receive sufficient classroom and practical training. Once students fulfill the prerequisites and are able to provide services to the public, under direct supervision of a Cosmetology instructor, they begin to experience the realities of salon and spa life. Our clients know our reputation for providing detail-oriented services in a supportive learning environment and they expect great service, home care education and follow-up. Students are able to hone their practical skills and new-found knowledge in this arena, and they also have the opportunity to expand upon their communication, customer service and work ethic skills.
As phenomenal growth continues across all aspects of the beauty industry, the competition for the best positions becomes greater. At New England Center for Cosmetology Education we know first-hand the tremendous positive impact of an employee who excels in product sales and the building of a loyal clientele. We are proud to have developed a full curriculum to equip students with the tools they need to build and retain a loyal clientele and maximize selling hair, nail and skin products by educating clients about the benefits of a home care regimen. This curriculum is fully integrated into each program from the onset of a student's enrollment through to graduation.
We know that our students expect to pursue careers that generously reward their talent, their drive, and their skills. Training in retail sales and customer retention is essential to achieving those goals and will help our students prepare for what has become an important aspect of working in the industry.
