The act prohibits a person from opening, conducting, or doing business as a private postsecondary educational institution in this state without obtaining approval to operate from the bureau, as specified, unless exempted. The act requires the bureau to adopt by regulation the process and procedures whereby an institution seeking approval may apply for and obtain approval to operate, and the process and procedures whereby an institution that has been granted approval may make a substantial change to, or obtain a renewal of, its approval to operate.This bill would prohibit the bureau from granting, renewing, or making a substantive change to an approval to operate an institution that is seeking to enroll a recipient of a Title 38 award, if CSAAVE determines that the institution is not eligible to receive Title 38 awards. The bill would require the bureau to take disciplinary action, as specified, against an institution if the institution enrolls, or seeks to enroll, a recipient of a Title 38 award and CSAAVE determines that the institution is not eligible to receive Title 38 awards.By creating additional criminal infractions under the act, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.Existing law establishes the Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education and provides for its functions and responsibilities.This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to these provisions.Digest Key Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: NOYES Local Program: NOYES Bill TextThe people of the State of California do enact as follows:SECTION 1.
