This bill establishes new requirements for special education administrators in Oklahoma, defining the term "special education administrator" to include the director and assistant director of a special education program within a school district. The State Board of Education is directed to issue a certificate in areas such as mild-moderate disabilities, severe-profound disabilities, or comprehensive special education to those who complete a prescribed 150-clock-hour special education program, which must include training on the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA). Special education administrators are required to obtain this certification within one year of their employment.

Additionally, the bill exempts individuals who already possess a valid Special Education Teaching Certificate from these new certification requirements. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, and includes an emergency clause to ensure its immediate implementation upon passage and approval.
