The program will offer an extensive survey of the $511 billion beauty industry

NEW YORK, October 13, 2021--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Yellowbrick, in collaboration with Fashion Institute of Technology’s (FIT) Center for Continuing and Professional Studies and Beauty Inc, today announced the launch of Beauty Business Essentials, an online program that surveys the major segments of the beauty business industry.

Beauty Business Essentials will explore the core roles within the beauty industry, which is currently worth $511 billion globally and is expected to hit $784 billion by 2027 according to Common Thread Collective. The program offers more than 15 hours of instruction and project time offered across five modules: "Beauty Industry Entrepreneurship and Intrapreneurship," "Product Development and Production Management," "Building a Successful Beauty Brand," "Beauty Business Marketing Strategies," and "Retailing and Distribution." Learners will gain a behind-the-scenes perspective on top brands’ strategies and successes.

Learners who complete the program will earn a non-credit certificate from FIT, upon gaining a full understanding of the key roles, skills, and functions required to be successful in the industry. Although it was developed as an extension of the Yellowbrick/FIT Beauty Industry Essentials program - with greater focus placed on entrepreneurship and business processes - there is no prerequisite for entry into Beauty Business Essentials.

"At FIT, we’re proud to be the first college in the country to offer a bachelor’s degree in Cosmetics and Fragrance Marketing and a master’s degree in Cosmetics and Fragrance Marketing and Management, and this collaborative program with Yellowbrick and Beauty Inc is further proof of our commitment to the industry," said Daniel J. Gerger, director of FIT's Center for Continuing and Professional Studies. "The beauty sector is poised to grow another 50% over the next six years and we see it as our mission to leverage our expertise to help educate the next generation of beauty leaders. This program is one way we’re working to do that."

In addition to FIT’s Virginia Bonofiglio, associate chairperson of the Cosmetics and Fragrance Marketing program, and Delphine Horvath, professor of Cosmetics and Fragrance Marketing, contributors to the program include Christine Chang and Sarah Lee, co-founders of Glow Recipe; Jessica Richards, founder of Shen Beauty; Karen Chambers, executive vice president at Iman Cosmetics; Umar ElBably and Fenton Jagdeo, co-founders of Faculty; and Jenny B. Fine, executive editor of Beauty, WWD and Beauty Inc.

"For the past 20 years, Beauty Inc has been the leading business-to-business source for trends and analysis in the industry. We launched our digital newsletter last year to dig even deeper into the explosion of new brands, new categories, and new talent in the beauty industry," explained Fine. "Now, in partnering with Yellowbrick and FIT, we’re able to take the next step and help educate a new wave of talent and support the industry we value so much."

"Beauty has emerged as one of the most exciting and expressive industries on the planet; full of artistry, opportunity, and growth," said Rob Kingyens, CEO of Yellowbrick. "Through our work with FIT and the staff at Beauty Inc, we aim to help highly motivated and creative learners make their own mark on the industry."
