Beau Monde is opening a new campus that will be located inside Lloyd Center mall on March 18^th.  Beau Monde is moving it’s Academy facility that has been located on 12^th and Alder for the last 5 years.  The class sizes had begun to outgrow the previous location and now will take place in a larger, state of the art facility.

The new location is furnished with the latest salon equipment.  “This is our dream facility. It has the look and location we have always wanted.  We loved our 12^th and Alder campus, but the free parking and location near the food court will really be beneficial for our students” said owner Dianna Peterson.

Heading up the teaching staff will be Rie Yamada.  Rie is a Sebastian advocate who was recently nominated for ‘Instructor of the Year’ at the America’s Beauty Show in Chicago.

We would love to book you an appointment to come in for a tour of our competency school or a salon service.

Congress passed, and the President has signed into law, the VOW to Hire Heroes Act of 2011. Included in this new law is the Veterans Retraining Assistance Program (VRAP). VRAP offers up to 12 months of training assistance to unemployed Veterans. The Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) and the Department of Labor (DOL) are working together to roll out this new program on July 1, 2012.

The VRAP offers 12 months of training assistance to Veterans who:

• Are at least 35 but no more than 60 years old
• Are unemployed
• Received an other than dishonorable discharge
• Are not be eligible for any other VA education benefit program (e.g.: the Post-9/11 GI Bill, Montgomery GI Bill, Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment Assistance)
• Are not in receipt of VA compensation due to unemployability
• Are not enrolled in a federal or state job training program

The program is limited to 45,000 participants from July 1, 2012, through September 30, 2012, and 54,000 participants from October 1, 2012, through March 31, 2014. Participants may receive up to 12 months of assistance equal to the monthly full-time payment rate under the Montgomery GI Bill–Active Duty program (currently $1,473 per month). DOL will offer employment assistance to every Veteran who participates upon completion of the program.

Participants must be enrolled in a VA approved program of education offered by a community college or technical school. The program must lead to an Associate Degree, Non-College Degree, or a Certificate, and train the Veteran for a high demand occupation.
