Test and professional licensure preparation services provision and appropriation

SF 2811 establishes a free test and professional licensure preparation program for public college students and dislocated workers in Minnesota. The program provides free access to exam prep services for tests like the MCAT, LSAT, GRE, GMAT, nursing, teaching, real estate, and securities exams. The commissioner must contract with a vendor to deliver these services, prioritize participants receiving state grants if funds are limited, and submit annual reports on program effectiveness and participation. The bill appropriates $5 million for fiscal year 2026 and $5 million for fiscal year 2027 to fund this initiative.
