Cosmetology Program of Samar State Polytechnic College: A Curricular Redirection
Abstract
This study was conducted to assess or evaluate the cosmetology curricular program of Samar State Polytechnic College. The research design used is Normative-development. For the major findings, fifty of respondents have availed of further training after graduation. Of the fifty respondents, 12 or 24.0 percent have been trained on modern technologies on hair-science and also have undergone training to be efficient domestic helpers. The grand weighted mean for the implementation of the objectives of the cosmetology program was 3.80 which implied that the objectives were satisfactorily implemented. The objectives of the cosmetology programs were satisfactorily implemented by the instructors in spite of the fact that facilities, tools and equipment in the department were very inadequate. Much more could be done by the college to make the program viable and responsive to the skill development of the students so as to afford them the opportunities to land employment. The cosmetology department does not have the essential tools and equipment to enable students to train on cosmetology skills fully. This was the most pressing problem the students met in college. For the recommendation, the college should provide up-dated references on the cosmetology program to meet the needs of the students and the instructors during the training process.
