We are a non-profit organization, registered under IRS 501(c)(3), authorized to operate the Apprenticeship Program under the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) and following the Board of Barbering and Cosmetology (BBC) regulations.
Our association is integrated by members of the Beauty Industry, including employers, apprentices, professionals and other individuals interested in helping and bringing training and study opportunities to minorities who want to integrate into the Beauty Industry, Barbering or Cosmetology.
Apprentices can work on a beauty salon, receiving compensation under all law regulations, and are granted an apprentice license from the State of California.
Our organization works through contributions, which come from employers, students, sponsors and voluntary contributions.
All funds contributed to SCCBEA are invested on educational resources and materials that comply with the most recent state laws and regulations
