Education: all other employees; regional school health coordinators; require. Amends secs. 1169 & 1170a of 1976 PA 451 (MCL 380.1169 & 380.1170a).

SB 1123 amends Michigan's school code to update requirements for health education, specifically focusing on HIV/AIDS instruction and CPR training. The bill mandates that teachers instructing on HIV/AIDS must have specialized training provided by regional school health coordinators, who are funded professionals designed to support comprehensive wellness programs across the state. Additionally, the legislation requires health education curricula for grades 7 through 12 to include CPR and automated external defibrillator instruction, utilizing nationally recognized guidelines and allowing various community members like firefighters and police officers to assist in teaching. The bill also clarifies that teachers do not need to be certified CPR instructors unless the class results in students earning a certification card.
