Community college funding-distance education credit hours.

HB 29 modifies Wyoming's community college funding formula by changing how distance education courses are counted. It eliminates the practice of counting distance education credit hours as full-time equivalents (weighted equivalency) when calculating funding allocations. The bill redefines "distance education class" to exclude courses that would otherwise be categorized as "level one, two, or three" based on course content. This change affects how Wyoming community colleges receive state funding for online and remote courses, effective July 1, 2023. The bill does not alter funding amounts but adjusts the calculation method for distance education credit hours.
