Instructor training is a teacher training program for licensed Cosmetologists. Through independent study, the student is introduced to curriculum development principles and teaching methods. The courses include applying learning principles, methods, and techniques in a classroom and laboratory environment. The short-term certificate includes required record keeping, classroom management, and evaluation methods.
The full-time program consists of two semesters, a current Cosmetology license for at least one year, and three semesters if not currently licensed for one year. After completing the prescribed curriculum, the student can take the NIC Alabama Board of Cosmetology and Barbering Instructor’s license. Completed courses and hours are transferable to some states for licensing.
Requirements for admission:
- Approved application with NWSCC Salon and Spa Program.
- Students must have a current cosmetology license for at least 1 year (the program requires two semesters).
- If a student has a current Cosmetology license for less than a year, the program requires three semesters.
- Student instructors will furnish their books and materials necessary for the course.
