Modifies provisions governing proprietary schools
HB 2792 modifies the rules governing proprietary schools in Florida to strengthen consumer protections and improve regulatory oversight. The bill requires these schools to post a security bond that covers student refunds and damages if the school violates regulations or shuts down, with funds used to compensate affected students. It also mandates that the state board review new or revised school programs within specific timeframes and allows for the suspension of certain rules by a legislative committee. Additionally, the legislation clarifies which types of institutions, such as religious schools and employer-sponsored training programs, are exempt from these new requirements.
