What changed in the latest version

The recent amendments to Bill HB 1006 establish a new designation called "thriving institutions" for state colleges and universities, focusing on improving educational outcomes for underrepresented groups like Latino students and first-generation college attendees. This bill also creates an advisory committee dedicated to assessing these institutions based on their performance and their ability to help students achieve economic success after graduation. These changes are important because they aim to ensure that more Coloradans, particularly those from underserved communities, gain the skills needed for better job opportunities.
NOTE:
This bill has been prepared for the signatures of the appropriate legislative officers and the Governor.
