\"First<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cIn the U.S and Canada, graduation ceremonies are generally referred to as commencement, by this reference; it means your graduation today does not signal an end to your training. In fact, this ceremony merely points to your beginning, the commencement of a brand new chapter in your lives as beauticians or hairdressers and you are going to be the authors of that chapter\u201d.<\/p>\n
