Schools and teachers are increasingly being held accountable for providing applied learning activities to every student in the classroom. This accountability is measured through increased requirements for mastery and attainment of competency as documented through both formative and summative assessments. This document provides information, tools, and solutions that will aid students, teachers, and schools in creating and implementing applied, interactive, and innovative lessons. Through best practices, alignment with national standards and certifications, community partnerships, and a hands-on, student- centered concept, educators will be able to truly engage students in meaningful and collaborative learning opportunities. The courses in this document reflect the statutory requirements as found in Section 37-3-49, Mississippi Code of 1972, as amended (Section 37-3-46). In addition, this curriculum reflects guidelines imposed by federal and state mandates (Laws, 1988, Ch. 487, §14; Laws, 1991, Ch. 423, §1; Laws, 1992, Ch. 519, §4 eff. from and after July 1, 1992; Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act, 2019 [Perkins V]; and Every Student Succeeds Act, 2015).

It prepares students for a variety of occupations in barbering including barber, cosmetologist, and entrepreneur. Course content provides coherent and rigorous alignment with challenging academic standards and relevant technical knowledge needed to prepare for further education and careers in various fields related to cosmetology. Needs of the Future Workforce Mississippi classifies jobs in the barbering industry as personal care and service occupations. Occupations within this classification include barbers, cosmetologists, hairstylists, hairdressers, and skincare specialists. Nationwide, the field of barbering and cosmetology is expected to grow by 19% between 2020 – 2030 (BLS, 2022). Future workers should expect strong competition from experienced workers in the field. Specialized services such as manicurists, pedicurists, and skincare specialists will continue to grow as consumers seek their services directly instead of barbers. Data for this synopsis was compiled from employment projections prepared by the Mississippi Department of Employment Security and the United States Department of Labor Statistics and the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics. Table 1.1: Current and Projected Occupation Report Description Jobs, Projected Jobs, 2028 Change (Number) Change (Percent) Average Hourly Earnings, 2021 Barbers, Hairdressers, Hairstylists, and Cosmetologists 2,230 2,280 2.2% $16.63 Manicurist/Pedicurist 4.3% $18.07 Skincare Specialist 11.1% $19.96 Source: Mississippi Department of Employment Security; mdes.ms.gov (2022). Perkins V Requirements The Barbering curriculum meets Perkins V requirements of introducing students to and preparing them for high-skill, high-wage occupations in barbering. It also offers students a program of study including secondary, postsecondary, and institutions of higher learning courses that will further prepare them for barbering careers. Additionally, this curriculum is integrated with academic college- and career-readiness standards. Finally, it provides ongoing and meaningful professional development for teachers as well as relationships with industry. Transition to Postsecondary Education The latest articulation information for secondary to postsecondary can be found at the Mississippi Community College Board website, mccb.edu. Mississippi CTE Curriculum Framework Best Practices Innovative Instructional Technologies Classrooms should be equipped with tools that will teach today’s digital learners through applicable and modern practices. The Barbering educator’s goal should be to include teaching strategies that incorporate current technology. To make use of the latest online communication tools—wikis, blogs, podcasts, and social media platforms, for example—the classroom teacher is encouraged to use a learning management system that introduces students to education in an online environment and places more of the responsibility of learning on the student. Differentiated Instruction Students learn in a variety of ways, and numerous factors—students’ background, emotional health, and circumstances, for example—create unique learners. By providing various teaching and assessment strategies, students with various learning preferences can have more opportunity to succeed. CTE Student Organizations Teachers should investigate opportunities to sponsor a student organization. There are several in Mississippi that will foster the types of learning expected from the Barbering curriculum. Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) is an example of a student organization with many outlets for cosmetology. Student organizations provide participants and members with growth opportunities and competitive events. They also open doors to the world of barbering careers and scholarship opportunities. Cooperative Learning Cooperative learning can help students understand topics when independent learning cannot. Therefore, you will see several opportunities in the Barbering curriculum for group work. To function in today’s workforce, students need to be able to work collaboratively with others and solve problems without excessive conflict. The Barbering curriculum provides opportunities for students to work together and help each other complete complex tasks. There are many field experiences within the Barbering curriculum that will allow and encourage collaboration with professionals currently in the barbering field. Work-Based Learning Work-based learning (WBL) is an extension of understanding competencies taught in the classroom. This program may require students to obtain a minimum of 35 practical hours, which may include, but are not limited to clinicals or worksite field experiences, entrepreneurship, internships, pre-apprenticeships, school-based enterprises, job placements, and simulated worksites. These real-world connections and applications provide a link to all types of students regarding knowledge, skills, and professional dispositions. Thus, supervised collaboration and immersion into the hair care profession are keys to students’ success, knowledge, and skills development.
