AI Summary
This bill prohibits the Commissioner of Education from approving certain tests for teacher certification candidates that have an extended retake waiting period of more than 14 days. The bill specifically prohibits the Commissioner from approving assessments of basic skills or state tests of subject matter knowledge that have such a waiting period. However, the bill does not limit the acceptance of alternate means of assessing a candidate's proficiency in English language and mathematics, such as the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), ACT Assessment, or Graduate Record Examination (GRE). The bill will take effect on the first day of the third month following the date of enactment, but the Commissioner may take any necessary anticipatory action for its implementation.
