Texas Cosmetology Schools

When looking around at colleges of cosmetology in Texas for your education, you may see that some are accredited. But what exactly does this word mean? Why should you care if your school is accredited? Accreditation is a procedure by the United States government that recognizes the quality education that certain schools provide. Certain agencies evaluate schools via a standardized process. Schools receive ratings based on specified criteria, such as curriculum, supplies, facilities, student support, rate of licensing, and job placement rate. Although each school has its own particular curriculum for cosmetology, accreditation indicates to prospective students that their program has passed the requirements meaning that they will be able to gain the skills and knowledge they need to be prepared for employment in their particular field. The National Accreditation Committee of Cosmetology Arts and Sciences (NACCAS) is the accreditation agency that evaluates the educational adequacy of colleges of cosmetology in Texas. In addition to evaluating new schools, the NACCAS also re-evaluates currently accredited schools every six years to make sure they still meet the standards for accreditation. Across the United States, there are more than 1,300 cosmetology schools that are accredited. Which colleges of cosmetology in Texas are accredited? Here are a few to discover. Read more...
