The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend existing regulations to clarify State Approving Agencies' (SAA) jurisdiction for approval of online distance learning courses and distinguish such courses from "traditional classroom" resident training courses and independent study-resident training courses (also known as "hybrid" courses), which are typically a combination of online and traditional training. Additionally, VA seeks to clarify SAA authority and jurisdiction with regard to approval and disapproval of any course, or licensing or certification test, and to clarify the adjudicatory outcomes available to an SAA when reviewing an approval application for any type of course (i.e., approval, denial of an application for approval, suspension of approval, or withdrawal of approval).
The agency’s own summary, as published.
