FEDERAL ALERT · 2025–2026 REPORTING CYCLEU.S. DOE Earnings Accountability Rule · Title IV eligibility at risk
For Cosmetology Schools · CE Providers · Compliance Officers

The DOE-aligned continuing education answer for cosmetology schools.

The U.S. Department of Education's Earnings Accountability Rule requires cosmetology programs to prove graduates clear a federal earnings threshold. National wage data shows the average cushion is only 8–15% — thin enough that a single underperforming cohort, or a lower-wage region, can put Title IV eligibility at risk.

The Franchise Frenzy is the peer-reviewed continuing education curriculum designed to elevate graduates from service provider to business builder — the identity and skillset shift that lifts reported earnings and defends compliance.

The Framework · From the Book

From service provider to business builder — the identity that raises earnings.

The Franchise Frenzy teaches graduates a repeatable framework — The 3.5 / 2.5 Factor™ — that shifts them from hourly service delivery into building durable, measurable value with every client. The optional next step is entrepreneurial experience, but the identity change comes first, and it's the change that lifts reported earnings.
