On June 11, hairdressing education teachers and advocates from across Australia gathered for Pivot Point’s 2011 Symposium.
Hosted by Pivot Point Academy in Sydney, representatives from TAFE campuses in each state joined the Pivot Point team to build industry relationships and discuss exciting new developments in hairdressing education. Guests were treated to a sneak preview of Pivot Point’s latest projects and heard from International guest speakers. European Worldskills Champion Ulrica Hannson was a crowd favourite, whose presentation on competition styling was deemed “inspirational" and "motivating"by guests.
Attendees agreed that the day’s most exciting news was the development and release of Pivot Point’s eLearning program. The release of an online learning program will be groundbreaking territory for Australian hairdressing education, and Symposium guests are looking forward to seeing it firsthand in the near future.
After a day packed full of information and presentation, guests enjoyed a cocktail and networking reception. Guests described the day as “extremely professional and well organised” and spoke about a shared passion [for hairdressing education] with Pivot Point.” One guest remarked; “Great to see that someone else cares about hairdressing as much as [we do].”
Pivot Point would like to extend a warm thank you to all the attendees who took part in Symposium 2011, and share our commitment to exemplary hairdressing education. Check out all the photos from the day here!
