CEFP and Espaço Simonny plan partnership for aesthetics training in São Filipe

During the meeting, the director of CEFP, Carlos Lopes, and the head of the company, Simony Montrond, a biomedical specialist and beautician, held a conversation marked by enthusiasm and strategic vision. Both highlighted the importance and urgent need to implement training courses in aesthetics and related areas in order to meet the growing demand for professional skills on the islands of Fogo and Brava.

Following the visit, Carlos Lopes pledged to proceed immediately with the request to extend the accreditation license. According to him, negotiations have already begun with the Directorate-General for Employment to implement a course in auxiliary beauty services and another in barbering later this year, strengthening the CEFP's training offer.

The Simonny Space offers a comprehensive range of specialized services, including manicures and pedicures, waxing, eyebrow design, henna application and micropigmentation, eyelash extensions, professional skin cleansing, chemical and organic peels, facial microneedling, dermaplaning, treatments for blemishes, acne and rejuvenation, facial and body therapies, mesopress, home skin care guidance, as well as relaxing, shaping and post-operative massages and mechanical lymphatic drainage.

The initiative has been well received by the community on social media, with several comments underlining the positive impact of the cooperation. Many internet users point out that the partnership could mitigate youth unemployment, boost the beauty sector and expand professional qualification opportunities in the region.

If it comes to fruition, the partnership between CEFP and Espaço Simonny could represent an important boost for technical training on the islands of Fogo and Brava, responding to market needs and creating new job prospects for young people.
