Repêchage® to be incorporated to the ICA curriculum
POSTED 17 Sep 2010 . BY Sarah Todd
A new partnership has been formed between Lydia Sarfati, the CEO and founder of Repêchage®, consultant and esthetics school owner Isabel Calleros, to create a curriculum that will be taught at the International College of Aesthetics (ICA).

The ICA will incorporate Repêchage® treatments and products into their salon, spa and clinical programme and has become what is reported to be the first cosmetology school in the US to have matriculation with the University of Phoenix.

The programme will be 750 hours in total - 320 hours will focus on salon and spa education with 320 hours on medical esthetics and 150 hours on laser training and accreditation.

The programme can already be found in four schools, located in Arizona, Texas and New Mexico, and the goal is to open an additional 25 schools in the future. Students will also be able to participate in the Look Good Feel Better scheme that provides makeovers to cancer patients. Details: repechage.com
