[wactc-san] New Regulations for Professional Licensure

[McBurney, Melissa]

Hello, WACTC-SAN eList Subscribers.

The Department of Education published new regulations which will go into effect July 1, 2024. WCET sent out two blog posts yesterday which do a great job of laying out the changes:

New Federal Regulations, Part 1: Addressing Programs Leading to a License or Certification<https://wcet.wiche.edu/frontiers/2023/10/31/new-federal-regulations-part-1-addressing-programs-leading-to-a-license-or-certification/>
New Federal Regulations, Part 2: Addressing Compliance with State Closure Laws and the Impact on Interstate Reciprocity Agreements<https://wcet.wiche.edu/frontiers/2023/10/31/new-federal-regulations-part-2-addressing-compliance-with-state-closure-laws-and-the-impact-on-interstate-reciprocity-agreements/>

Please read through the blog so you understand the specific regulations. I will pass along more guidance from SAN as that comes out.

In addition, SAN is providing other opportunities to learn about these changes:
