This bill reorganizes Chapter 115D of the North Carolina General Statutes, which governs the state's community college system, and makes several significant changes to the structure and operations of community colleges. The bill primarily focuses on reorganizing existing statutes, creating new sections, and consolidating various provisions related to community college administration, programs, and student services. Key provisions include establishing new sections for high school programs, workforce development, and student-related policies, and creating more explicit guidelines for program approval, tuition waivers, and accreditation. The bill updates references to existing laws, clarifies the State Board of Community Colleges' authority, and introduces new reporting requirements for various programs such as the Career and College Promise Program and the NC Career Coach Program. The reorganization aims to improve the clarity and accessibility of laws governing community colleges while maintaining their core mission of providing vocational, technical, and academic education to students across North Carolina.
