Summary
Existing law establishes the California Community Colleges under the administration of the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges. Existing law, until January 1, 2013, deletes a requirement that the board of governors review and approve courses of instruction that are not offered as part of an educational program approved by the board of governors. This bill would extend the date of deletion of this requirement to January 1, 2014.
