From @nasfaa letter to @usedgov on licensure programs - "licensure boards do not reliably make their requirements accessible and — in some cases — do not apply standards uniformly, making it impossible for institutions t o determine if their program meets state requirements" 9/X

New @usedgov #highered regs: For #stateauthorization reciprocity: institutions must meet closure, recruitment, and misrepresentation regs for each state. Colleges would pay tuition recovery funds & bonding for some states & meet other regs. www2.ed.gov/policy/highered/… @NCSARA_News

New @usedgov #highered regs: Programs leading to professional licensure must "satisfy" the educational prerequisites for licensure or certification in that state. No definition for "satisfy." What about professions that don't make a determination? www2.ed.gov/policy/highered/…

Breaking: @usedgov releases regs for comment from last rulemaking. Looks like it will have big impact on #onlinelearning programs using #reciprocity & on programs leading to licensure in other states. Reading thru the 1,077 pages. www2.ed.gov/policy/highered/… #HigherEd @NCSARA_News

The @usedgov delays enforcement of its #Thirdpartyservicers guidance and clarifies a few services that are not included. Kudos to the Department for quick action, but they need to go further before #negreg to narrow the scope to services that pose Title IV risks @insidehighered
