The bill mandates that the governing bodies of postsecondary educational institutions in Kansas must regularly review and update their accreditation policies and practices. By December 31, 2025, these institutions are required to identify accrediting agencies recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and ensure their policies allow for the pursuit of accreditation from these agencies. Additionally, the bill stipulates that no accrediting agency can compel an institution to violate state law, and any adverse actions taken against an institution for compliance with state law will be considered a violation of this section.

Furthermore, the bill allows postsecondary institutions negatively impacted by such violations to bring civil actions against the accrediting agencies in state courts. If an accrediting agency violates the provisions of this bill, the governing board of the affected institution must notify the legislature within 30 days. The definition of "postsecondary educational institution" includes state educational institutions, private postsecondary institutions, and municipal universities as defined in existing Kansas statutes.
