This bill mandates that the state board of regents and all postsecondary educational institutions in Kansas ensure that pre-service teachers in early childhood, elementary, secondary, and special education are equipped with essential knowledge and skills to support children affected by fetal alcohol syndrome disorder. The required training includes understanding the common signs and behaviors associated with the disorder, recognizing its impacts on learning and behavior, and learning effective communication techniques with parents or guardians regarding suspected cases and educational interventions.

The bill defines "pre-service teacher" as an individual undergoing education and training to become a licensed teacher, and it outlines what constitutes a "postsecondary educational institution." The act will take effect upon its publication in the statute book, emphasizing the importance of preparing future educators to address the needs of children impacted by fetal alcohol syndrome disorder.
