The 9 state board of education has a statutory duty to prescribe 10 standards and procedures for the approval of practitioner 11 preparation programs and professional development programs 12 offered in this state by postsecondary institutions located 13 within or outside this state and by area education agencies. 14 Currently, statutory provisions relating to the state board’s 15 responsibility to adopt rules relating to institutions that 16 offer practitioner preparation programs and professional 17 development programs are located in Code chapters 256 18 (department of education) and 272 (educational examiners 19 board). The bill transfers such statutory language from 20 Code chapter 272 to Code section 256.16 (specific criteria 21 for teacher preparation and certain educators), eliminates a 22 reference to “professional development institution” that was 23 not defined or used elsewhere in Iowa Code or rule, and removes 24 resulting redundancies by repealing Code sections 272.25 and 25 272.27. 26 BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL GRANT PROGRAM —— REPEALED.
