This bill requires that, beginning in the 2025-26 school year, the State Board of Education and the Career and Technical Education Advisory Council evaluate the Federal taxonomic coding scheme of instructional programs known as the Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) to determine the types of instructional programs that may meet the minimum requirements leading to recognition as part of a CTE program that offers a CTE certificate.
Upon evaluation, if the Board and Council determines that an existing teaching certification can be applied to a particular CIP code the program represented by such CIP code must be approved as a CTE program. If the Board and Council determine that no existing teacher certification can be assigned to a particular CIP code, the program represented by such CIP code can be approved as a CTE program and designated as a program with inappropriate teacher certification until the appropriate teacher certification for such CIP code can be approved.
This bill is similar to HB 2692 (2024).
