Students Benefit from School's Partnerships with Wella Sebastian and Pivot Point
The phrase "mom and pop" has been used for many years when referring to a private, family-owned small business, which often has a strong connection to the local community and offers superior customer service. However, the phrase – small business—often has negative connotations due to a perception that small businesses are limited.
The Federico Beauty Institute (FBI) can definitely be thought of as a mom and pop-type business. Founded by James Federico in 1946, the beauty school, based in Sacramento, is a private business operated by the third generation of the Federico family.
That's where the similarities to a mom and pop business end. Federico has been designated as a Wella Signature School and a Pivot Point International Member School thanks to these two leading beauty industry giants recognizing the FBI's dedication and commitment to the highest standards in beauty education.
Educational Partnerships Contribute to Continued Growth
Federico's high quality, hands-on curriculum from Pivot Point, the premier firm in beauty education.
Federico has become one of only four other beauty schools in the nation to be designated as a Wella Signature School. The Signature School status allows Federico to earn points from beauty products that are purchased by customers of the school's beauty and boutique services clinic. These points become educational benefits and purchasing power for FBI students.
Points accumulated through Federico can be used toward admission into Wella's Advanced Instructor Seminars for FBI's professional, tenured instructors. These instructors who receive advanced training keep all FBI students current on continuously changing beauty trends and techniques. Also, students at Federico have total access to the Wella, Sebastian and Graham Webb products available at the campus beauty boutique at salon cost!
The school meets its mission everday --"to hold the highest standards in beauty education so we can produce future leaders of the beauty industry" -- with the help of the strong educational partnerships it maintains with Wella Sebastian and Pivot Point International.
