These Sections assist CIDESCO International on the status of the beauty industry in each country to promote ongoing communication and development within the beauty and education industries. CIDESCO also sponsors educational classes at international trade shows throughout the world. Each year, a CIDESCO Section is invited to host a CIDESCO World Congress and Exhibition. In 2005, I was appointed chairman of CIDESCO Section USA and brought the 54th CIDESCO World Congress to New York City during the International Beauty Show. In 2019, the World Congress was held in Chicago, Illinois. CIDESCO ACCREDITATION With the acceleration of technology and science, CIDESCO continually adapts its curriculum to maintain the highest professional standards in esthetics. Today, as esthetic surgery and skin care grow in popularity and the variety of devices, products, and services increases, this rapid development demands that standards are continually updated to accommodate this ever-expanding field of study and work through CIDESCO accreditation. Spas and salons can become accredited through CIDESCO after undergoing intense analysis for the highest standards of excellence in the profession and demonstrating the highest quality of service and hygiene.
