NEW INDUSTRY RESEARCH AVAILABLE
Pivot Point and Beauty Cast Network (BCN) conducted research at the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) Annual Conference. This research report includes both quantitative research of attendees as well as qualitative insights from conversations with attendees to provide a holistic overview of attitudes and perceptions about career education, with specific emphasis on the beauty industry.
The research focuses on a nationwide group of high school career counselors, aiming to understand their level of interest and the information they need to effectively promote careers in beauty.
Recent developments, including concerns about college debt, the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on traditional white-collar careers, and questions about the value of a college education in a changing world, have reshaped the conversation about college vs. career education. Our research demonstrates the growing interest in our careers and the actions to best take advantage.
The Know Beauty Secrets campaign, sponsored by the leading beauty and wellness associations, will support this and drive interest in our careers by sharing “our stories” with prospective students, their parents and advisors, the legislative community and the general public.

This past weekend at the 68th annual conference of the National Interstate Council of State Boards of Cosmetology - NIC, Robert Passage, the Chairman and CEO of Pivot Point, was honored with the prestigious Aurie J. Gosnell Award. He shared this esteemed recognition with his long-standing industry colleague, competitor, and, most importantly, friend, Sanda Bruce, who serves as the Senior Vice President and General Manager of Milady at Cengage Group.
The award, named after its remarkable founder, Aurie Elizabeth Jackson Gosnell, pays tribute to her enduring impact on the cosmetology industry. Her invaluable contributions have left an enduring mark, enriching our field in numerous ways. We take immense pride in our leader, Robert Passage, and his unwavering dedication to our beloved industry, which he ardently champions.
It is worth noting that this award also holds a special place in the Passage family’s history. In 2011, Robert’s father, Leo Passage, was posthumously honored with the same award, further underscoring the remarkable legacy that runs through their family and the industry as a whole.
