EVALUATION TECHNIQUES
Student Experience
A test may be administered after each lesson to determine the amount of learning that has taken place. Test scores that are below 75 percent are an indication that the necessary skills for entry into employment were not acquired. Administration may provide progress reports at predetermined intervals in the program. Students should make arrangements for additional practice, independent study, or tutoring, if needed. Grades and/or assessments will be provided to the students on a weekly basis with a final report and transcript provided at the completion of the program if the student is in good status. Other methods of evaluation may include oral quizzes, skill development tests, hands-on skill evaluation, and individual and group projects.
CREDIT FOR PREVIOUS TRAINING
Student Experience
Abyssinia Beauty School is committed to helping students reach their educational goals as quickly as possible. However, technology changes rapidly and what was learned in an earlier program may no longer be applicable. To ensure that our students graduate with the skills necessary to achieve success in the workplace we will give recognition for previous training only after the student has taken and passed a program proficiency test. Students wishing to receive recognition for previous training must show proof of previous training.
CERTIFIED CERTIFICATE
Cosmetology Program
Upon completion of the program, the school will issue a state certified certificate of completion in Cosmetology.
