The U.S. Department of Education has announced a decision that affects career-training programs across various sectors. Barbering, cosmetology, and massage-therapy programs have received an extension to meet the requirements of a newly finalized accountability rule.
These training programs, fundamental to small business ownership, cater to individuals striving to establish their businesses one client at a time. Each haircut or massage session represents a step in building a business.
Last month, the Department of Education concluded its work on an accountability rule aimed at career-training initiatives. Following this, the Department opted to delay the implementation timeline specifically for barbering, cosmetology, and massage therapy programs. This provides these fields with more time to adjust and fulfill the necessary compliance measures.
