Bill > HB2195

This bill establishes the Kansas Technical College Operating Grant Fund in the state treasury, which will be administered by the state board of regents. The fund is specifically designed to provide financial support for instruction and operations at technical colleges, with the goal of meeting target objectives set by the postsecondary technical education authority for both regional and statewide educational needs. The bill defines "technical college" to include institutions as defined in K.S.A. 71-1802 and the Washburn Institute of Technology. Expenditures from the fund will be made through a formal process involving warrants from the director of accounts and reports, based on vouchers approved by the executive officer of the state board of regents or their designee. The legislation aims to create a dedicated funding mechanism to support technical education in Kansas, ensuring that technical colleges have a consistent and structured source of operational funding to meet educational targets and serve their communities effectively.
