Summary

This notice is submitted in compliance with IC 4-22-2-19, which requires an agency to begin the rulemaking process not later than 60 days after the effective date of the statute that authorizes the rule, unless a notice is filed with the publisher that includes the reasons why rulemaking began more than 60 days after the effective date. The proposed rule is being enacted to comply with IC 4-22-2-19.6 (HEA 1623-2023) by setting the fees charged in a conforming rule. As part of the teacher licensure process, applicants must obtain at least the minimum acceptable score on a content area assessment under 511 IAC 15-7-2. Applicants are required to pay a fee to the assessment company to take the assessment. The proposed rulemaking brings currently assessed fees into conformity with IC 4-22-2-19.6 by including them in a rule. The proposed rule establishes fees negotiated between the Indiana Department of Education and the testing vendor, at levels agreed to by the vendor, to cover the costs of providing assessments. There will be no change in the practice of assessing fines. The purpose of the rule is to set existing fines in a conforming rule.
