Notice of Proposed Rule

Department:

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

Division:

Commission for Independent Education

Chapter:

LICENSING

Overview

RULE:

6E-2.004

Standards and Procedures for Licensure

PURPOSE:

The purpose and effect of the proposed rule is to amend two existing forms.  CIE Form 804, Placement and Retention Reporting for Institutionally Accredited Institutions – Programmatic Reporting , is amended to require an explanation where the placement or retention rate for a program is not reported to an accrediting agency and where the rate reported to an accrediting agency is zero.  CIE Form 604, Selected Financial Data, is amended to broaden the persons who may complete the form.

SUMMARY:

Where the placement and retention rate for an educational program is one that typically must be reported to an accrediting agency, Form 804 requires that an applicant for licensure provide an explanation when these rates are not reported or when the reported rate is zero.  The Form 604 is amended so that the CPA who completes the form need not be the same CPA that completed the financial statement for the institution.
