FAIR TRADE & SKILLED EDUCATION
PLEASE JOIN OUR EFFORT TO STOP INDIANA PROFESSIONAL COSMETOLOGY & BARBERING LICENSING AGENCY FROM REQUIRING EXCESSIVE AND UN-NECESSARY LICENSING FROM CURRENT, AND ACTIVE LICENSE HOLDERS. WE ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT BY SIGNING THIS PETITION.
WE'RE ALL ENTITLED TO "A FAIR TRADE AND SKILLED EDUCATION".
Why is this important?
INDIANA PROFESSIONAL LICENSING AGENCY COSMETOLOGY & BARBERING BOARD CURRENTLY HAS 26 LICENSED REQUIRED OCCUPATIONS (MORE THAN EVERY INDIANA LICENSED PROFESSION IN THE ENTIRE AGENCY). MANY OF THESE 26 LICENSES ARE REDUNDENT, WHICH REQUIRES ACTIVE (VALID) AND CURRENT LICENSE HOLDERS TO REPEAT ENTIRE CURRICULIUM, INSTEAD OF TESTING, AND COMPLETING SPECIFIC OCCUPATION CURRICULIUM WHICH IS ACTUALLY
NEEDED.
HINDERED OCCUPATIONS WITH SIIMILIAR TRADE CURRICULIUMS:
• COSMETOLOGY / BARBERING
• INSTRUCTORS COSMO. / BARB.
• PROVISIONAL / TEMPORARY
(ALL OCCUPATIONS WITH PROVISIONAL AND TEMPORARY TERMS)
• BARBER / COSM. SCHOOLS, SALON / SHOPS
CAUSING LICENSED HOLDERS TO DELAY ADVANCEMENT, PASS OPPORTUNITIES, AVOID RETIREMENT, AND AVOID SHARING TRADE SECRETS WITH NEW INSPIRED STUDENTS AND MORE. LICENSE HOLDERS ARE FORCED TO SEEK UN-NECESSARY OPTIONS, WHILE REMAINING IN THEIR CURRENT OCCUPATIONS; ACHIEVING LIFETIME VISIONS GO UNATTENDED, TRUE EARNING POTENTIALS, AND WORST! UNABLE TO PROVIDE TRAINING FOR OTHERS OR CREATE NEW JOBS.
