The Barber program is an evening-only program. Classes are offered on a year-round basis
in order to meet the state requirement for completion. Training during the first semester is
an introduction to all subject areas and is achieved through theory and a lab setting.
Intermediate and advanced training is the combination of theory pertaining to
barbering and lab training which is achieved through a clinical set up with students
working on patrons and/or mannequins.
