Advanced Education

Whatever your career training choice, we feel that enhancing your skills and always learning the latest trends and techniques is so important to your education and success -- that's why we offer Advanced Training Workshops throughout the year featuring some of the top educators in the country!

All currently enrolled students are given the opportunity for Advanced Education classes to better themselves in their field of choice.  In these classes, students learn the latest information related to today's techniques, trends, fashions and methods for their career development and aid to ensure their career success.

Why do you call them signature series workshops?
Because, each artist, including yourself, have their own distinct style and design, their signature if you will.  During these workshops you will work with the artist sharpening your skills by learning their techniques, creating your own signature in style and design.

How much does it cost to attend a signature series workshop?
Unless otherwise noted, each one day class costs $100.  This cost includes a Mannequin (if applicable) or Kit depending on the type of class, Certificate of Participation and a Signature Series Patch.

How do I sign up?!
Contact your Director or Admissions Representative to sign up for upcoming workshops.  If you have educational vouchers and would like to use them, great!  Otherwise, cash or credit cards are accepted to pay for classes. It's that easy!

At Olympian University you will learn more than the technical and creative skills that make this business so exciting!

Educational Forum

As a annual event the schools of Olympian University, Aladdin Beauty College, ITS Academy of Beauty and International Academy of Hair Design host a two-day Educational Forum featuring top educators from around the country, national salon chains, industry support and tool distributors, hair and skin products, and more!

This two day event takes place in Dallas, Texas and is a great chance to see both on and off stage demonstrations of haircutting, coloring, styling and more of the latest style trends and techniques of the hair and skin industry.  It is also a great opportunity for currently enrolled students as well as graduates to visit with vendors about your career opportunities once you are licensed.

Our student competitions held at the Educational Forum continue to grow each year!  All students are encourage to participate in each of the student competitions, either as an individual in the Bridal or Fantasy Mannequin competitions or as a team in the Three-Man team Total Look competition!  Each year, the competitions gets harder and harder to judge but that is what makes it so great!
