The Barber Crossover Certificate of Completion provides a foundation for continuing personal, professional, and educational development. Students will be able to communicate advanced skills and practices incorporating the health and safety standards necessary to reduce and minimize public safety issues in the workplace. This certificate will cover both introductory and advanced barber skills and concepts for the licensed cosmetologist who wishes to cross over into barbering or to expand on their knowledge base. Training will include the California Board of Barbering and Cosmetology health, safety, and disinfection standards; refresher and more advanced instructional lectures and demonstrations; and written and practical examinations. Students completing this certificate will have intermediate theoretical and practical knowledge of industry safety standards to infer evidence-based applications and reasoning of best procedures and practices. Upon completion of this certificate, students will have demonstrated this knowledge in daily practices within a simulated barbershop environment on patrons from within the community. Students will have completed the training requirements as outlined by the California Board of Barbering and Cosmetology for licensure. Locally projected increases in barber workforce demand will expand career opportunities to students within various employment opportunities for high desert graduates. Job opportunities include self-employed barbers, barber school educators, barber product developers, freelance and special event hires, barbershop management and ownership, as well as expanding into other industries where aesthetics and self-care are evolving.
