An act to amend Section 94874.7 of the Education Code, relating to private postsecondary education.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL’S DIGEST

SB 410, as introduced, Beall. California Private Postsecondary Education Act of 2009: exemptions.

Existing law, the California Private Postsecondary Education Act of 2009, provides, among other things, for student protections and regulatory oversight of private postsecondary institutions in the state. The act is enforced by the Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education within the Department of Consumer Affairs. The act requires the bureau to establish, by regulation, a process pursuant to which an institution that is exempt from the act may request and obtain from the bureau verification that the institution is exempt.

This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to the provision requiring the bureau to establish that verification process.

Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no. State-mandated local program: no.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
