Bill overview
This bill updates Arizona’s regulations for private postsecondary education institutions, particularly those operating outside the state. It clarifies definitions related to accreditation, licensing, and ‘operating’ an institution, including provisions for online distance education. Specifically, it establishes a process for out-of-state institutions to register, ensuring they provide financial protection for Arizona residents and comply with state regulations. The bill also creates a student tuition recovery fund to compensate students who suffer financial loss if an institution ceases operations before fulfilling its contractual obligations.
