HB 1719 Schools, postsecondary; clarifies role of Council of Higher Education in certification thereof.

Introduced by: Robert Tata | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Certification of postsecondary schools.  Clarifies the role of the State Council of Higher Education (SCHEV) in the certification of postsecondary schools (degree-granting schools other than public institutions of higher education and noncollege degree schools). Previously, SCHEV approved programs of study; this measure provides for the certification of schools rather than program approval. This certification authority does not address professional or training programs subject to a Virginia health regulatory board or other state or federal governmental agency.
