History
The Advanced Electrolysis Training Center was originally established in 1995 as a training center offering workshops for practicing electrologists who wanted to improve their technique, learn new techniques, and earn continuing education hours.
In 2003, after seeing a great need for proper instruction at the beginning of the electrologists’ careers, Cindy Cassady expanded the Training Center to offer advanced education on a beginner’s level. The facility is licensed by the Commission of Independent Education, Department of Education.
The name was changed to Cindy Cassady School of Electrology in April 2005, and the Cindy Cassady School of Electrology Health & Beauty was established in December 2009.
