What’s in it
AI summary Barbershops could start their own training programs for people who want to become licensed barbers. These shops cannot offer training if they are located near a licensed barber school. Once a person finishes the program, they can take the test to get their barber license.1
Read the official explanation
This bill allows barbershops to provide barbering apprenticeship training programs registered by the office of apprenticeship of the United States department of labor. A barbershop shall not offer an apprenticeship training program within miles of a licensed barber school. The bill requires a barbershop to report to the board of barbering the name of each person enrolled in an apprenticeship training program, as well as such other information as the board may require, and allows the board to charge a barbershop a fee of no more than $20 per apprentice. A person who completes an apprenticeship training program offered by a barbershop in this state shall be allowed to take the examination for a license to practice barbering.
