This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.
Summary
(1) The California Private Postsecondary Education Act of 2009 provides for the regulation of private postsecondary educational institutions by the Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education, with specified exceptions. The act requires private postsecondary educational institutions to comply with various fair business practices, as specified. The act includes transition provisions from the former Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education Reform Act of 1989, which, among other things, provide for the preservation of certain claims and remedies under the former act. This bill would require a remedy that could have been ordered to redress a violation of the former act to remain available for certain actions that were commenced after June 30, 2007, and before January 1, 2010. (2) The act requires private postsecondary educational institutions to annually report to the bureau, and publish various statistics including job placement rates. The act requires job placement rates to be calculated by dividing the number of graduates employed in the field by the number of graduates available for employment for specified programs. The act defines "graduates employed in the field" for the purposes of these provisions. This bill, with respect to occupations or jobs in an apprenticeship program approved by the Division of Apprenticeship Standards of the Department of Industrial Relations or a position for which the Board of Registered Nursing has established licensure requirements, would separately define "graduates employed in the field" for purposes of the reporting requirements.

- What does AB 2393 do?
- (1) The California Private Postsecondary Education Act of 2009 provides for the regulation of private postsecondary educational institutions by the Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education, with specified exceptions. The act requires private postsecondary educational institutions to comply with various fair business practices, as specified. The act includes transition provisions from the former Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education Reform Act of 1989, which, among other things, provide for the preservation of certain claims and remedies under the former act. This bill would require a remedy that could have been ordered to redress a violation of the former act to remain available for certain actions that were commenced after June 30, 2007, and before January 1, 2010. (2) The act requires private postsecondary educational institutions to annually report to the bureau, and publish various statistics including job placement rates. The act requires job placement rates to be calculated by dividing the number of graduates employed in the field by the number of graduates available for employment for specified programs. The act defines "graduates employed in the field" for the purposes of these provisions. This bill, with respect to occupations or jobs in an apprenticeship program approved by the Division of Apprenticeship Standards of the Department of Industrial Relations or a position for which the Board of Registered Nursing has established licensure requirements, would separately define "graduates employed in the field" for purposes of the reporting requirements.
