The University College Isle of Man (UCM) has launched an apprenticeship course in barbering.
The part-time course that is due to start in October will incorporate cutting men’s hair and facial hair, following health and safety, along with client consultation.
UCM will provide the teaching of theory elements, students will participate in practical training with their employers and at UCM’s Synnova training salon.
Liza Nicholson, assistant programme manager who oversees the hair & beauty department, said: “Following on from our barbering industry event and meetings with stakeholders, we are delighted to be able to offer a VTCT Level 2 certificate in barbering apprenticeship course at UCM.
“The barbering industry is rapidly growing, and we are pleased to be able to work alongside employers and professionals in the field to help to train their employees and barbers of the future.”
UCM have been offering full-time and day-release Hairdressing courses for many years, and Nicholson says “it’s exciting that we’re developing this further, and we look forward to continuing working with employers to ensure our curriculum and modes of study support their businesses”.
