Relating to the continuing education required in order for a person to renew the person's agreement with the comptroller of public accounts to serve as an arbitrator in an appeal through binding arbitration of an appraisal review board order determining a protest.

SB 2960 updates the continuing education requirements for arbitrators handling property tax disputes in Texas. To renew their agreement with the comptroller, arbitrators must complete eight hours of approved education in arbitration/dispute resolution (from universities, trade associations, or bar-approved courses) and, if updated, finish a revised property tax law training program. This directly affects current and future arbitrators registered to resolve property tax appeals through binding arbitration. The bill amends Texas Tax Code Section 41A.061 and takes effect September 1, 2025.
