Bill Summary

Amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), entitled "An act relating to the public school system, including certain provisions applicable as well to private and parochial schools; amending, revising, consolidating and changing the laws relating thereto," in career and technical education, further providing for Cosmetology Training through Career and Technical Center Pilot Program and for Barber Training through Career and Technical Center Pilot Program.

AI Summary

This bill modifies existing laws related to Cosmetology and Barber Training programs in Pennsylvania's career and technical education system. Specifically, the bill removes the word "pilot" from program descriptions, effectively transforming these previously temporary programs into permanent initiatives. The bill extends reporting deadlines for Career and Technical Centers (CTCs) and secondary schools from June 30, 2023, to May 31, 2026, requiring annual reporting to the State Board of Cosmetology and the State Board of Barber Examiners. Additionally, it eliminates the previous provision that would have caused these programs to expire after three years. The changes suggest a commitment to maintaining and continuing these vocational training programs, which provide students with professional skills in cosmetology and barbering. The bill will take effect on June 30, 2025, or immediately, whichever occurs later, ensuring a smooth transition and continuation of these educational programs.
