Today I decided to look into what legislation had been filed on the Utah Legislature website to determine a good one to track.
I found one that I think is interesting. H.B. 45 Higher Education Credit Amendments is a bill relating to the treatment of credits in higher education. The key pieces I'm most interested in deal with credits for prior learning.
The bill was introduced by Val L. Peterson and is sponsored in the Senate by Ann Millner, both Republicans with professions in the education realm.
It seems that the bill has been sent through the normal pre-debate steps and is currently awaiting debate at the time of this writing.
I look forward to digging in more to the meat of this bill and seeing where things end up by the end of the session.
