Bill > SB877

This bill modifies the existing Barber Training Through Career and Technical Center (CTC) Program by removing the term "Pilot" from the program's official name and eliminating the program's scheduled expiration date. Specifically, the bill removes the original sunset provision that would have ended the program three years from its effective date and changes the annual reporting deadline to June 1 each year. The bill also formally clarifies that the transition from a pilot program to a regular program is a continuous effort, ensuring that all existing regulations, orders, rules, decisions, contracts, obligations, and collective bargaining agreements established during the pilot phase remain valid and in full effect. Career and Technical Centers (CTCs) and secondary schools participating in the program will continue to be required to submit annual reports to the State Board of Barber Examiners, maintaining oversight and tracking of the program's progress. The legislation takes effect immediately, indicating an intent to promptly implement these changes to the barber training program.
