Inter-Dec College, a member of the LaSalle International network, opens a new campus in Laval

Open house August 16, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., at 1595 Daniel Johnson Boulevard

MONTREAL, July 26, 2012 /CNW Telbec/ - This August, Inter-Dec College will open the doors of a new campus in Laval, offering future students four programs in both English and French: Artistic Makeup - Fashion and Beauty; Artistic Makeup - TV, Film and Theatre; Master Class in Artistic Makeup; and Manicures, Pedicures and Artificial Nails.

According to Claude Marchand, Executive Vice-President, LaSalle International, the Laval campus will enable students in northern Montreal to study closer to home: "Given the success of our Montreal campus and our desire to meet the educational needs of our students in the Laval region, expanding our network to the North Shore was an obvious choice. The opening of the Inter-Dec Laval campus allows our students to benefit from our creative programs, with their leading-edge technology, while offering them the opportunity to study close to home", said Marchand.

Courses at Inter-Dec College are offered to small groups of students in a modern setting, promoting a better quality education. With an average duration of one year, each program in the areas of Beauty, Interior Design and Digital Arts leads to an Attestation of College Studies (AEC) or a Diploma of Vocational Studies (DEP) recognized by the Ministry of Education, Recreation and Sport (MELS), or to an institutional certificate (AE).

Many graduates of Inter-Dec College have found a place in the labor market: "The course far exceeded my expectations, with professional teachers, quality materials, a complete course enabling us to grasp the different types of makeup, and the opportunity to participate in major events. The portfolio created with a professional photographer makes it even more concrete and provides an excellent tool for displaying our talents. Thanks to this course, I will soon be taking part in the Festival Mode & Design Montreal 2012."

Located a stone's throw from Centropolis, known as the centre of Laval, the new Inter-Dec College Laval campus is accessible via the Montmorency metro station.

There will be an open house on August 16 from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. All are welcome to attend.
