Cameo College of Essential Beauty was recently honored by Modern Salon Media
MODERN SALON Media has named the 2011 class
of “Excellence in Education” honorees in its annual program recognizing
leadership and best practices among cosmetology schools. Cameo College of Essential
Beauty of Murray, Utah was
chosen to represent excellence in the category of Marketing Innovation. MODERN
SALON Publisher Steve Reiss and MODERN SALON’s First Chair Editor Alison
Shipley announced the class of schools during the AACS (American Association of
Cosmetology Schools) at its fall 2011convention in Phoenix.
Hundreds of entries were submitted from cosmetology schools from across
North America, in eight categories ranging from marketing to placement to
school culture. Finalists were determined in four classes based on school size
or number of locations, with one overall honoree from all applicants named for
each category.
“Cameo College is honored to be recognized by Modern Salon
as excellence in Education in the Marketing Innovation category. We
strive to place the Cosmetology and Cosmetology Related Professions as a
leading career choice which provides endless and rewarding opportunities
helping make the world a more beautiful place,” Owner/Director, Brenda Scharman
“Based on the volume and caliber of entries received, it is clear there
are many wonderful schools doing amazing things to secure a beautiful future
for the professional beauty industry,” said Associate Publisher Michele
Musgrove. “We will be showcasing many of
the applicants’ stories, accomplishments and best practices in our magazines,
web sites and e-letters.” (A complete
list of finalists in each category and class size is listed below.)
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 explained. “We want to help spread
the word about the exceptional work cosmetology schools are doing to help
launch beautiful careers. Small schools, large schools, chain schools and
single units of chain schools are all represented. We hope the professional salon industry will
join us in celebrating them, and will help us grow and evolve the “Excellence
in Education” program for 2012.”
