Data Foundation Inc., Larry’s Barber College, and LSE Enterprise's use of data, resources, and on-the-ground support has gained a deeper understanding of student success, including academic measures alongside mindset shifts.
We gather feedback from students, licensed barbers, teachers, and sponsors to contribute to a culture of continuous improvement. We also provide detailed support to operationalize professional developments and manage logistics.
The Data Foundation Inc. is an entity of LSE Enterprises, Inc., which owns and operates Larry’s Barber Colleges #1, #2, #3, and #4, Larry’s Barber College within the Cook County Jail, and Larry’s Haircare Products. Because of the umbrella partnership, Data Foundation Inc. will team with all five barber schools to provide several services and resources to at-risk teenagers and released inmates to provide vocational and life training. The aforementioned services/resources are highlighted below:
Previously Released Inmates:
Each inmate can begin the barbering curriculum while in the Cook County Jail. Due to the fluctuation of the time, each inmate will be in barber class and/or in their individual time served; a definite timeframe of completion is on a case-by-case basis. However, the hours obtained while in the Cook County Jail will be transferred to a traditional Larry’s Barber College, where they can finish the remainder of the 1,500 hours needed for graduation.
