CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2023–2024 REGULAR SESSION

Assembly Bill

No. 2245

---

Introduced by Assembly Member Juan Carrillo

February 08, 2024

---

An act to amend, repeal, and add Section 44910 of the Education Code, relating to school employees.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2245, as introduced, Juan Carrillo. Certificated school employees: permanent status: regional occupational centers or programs.

Existing law authorizes the establishment of regional occupational centers or programs to provide career technical education and technical training to pupils. Existing law requires instruction in those centers or programs to be given only by a qualified teacher holding a certificate, as provided, but prohibits service by a person as an instructor in classes conducted at regional occupational centers or programs from being included in computing the service required as a prerequisite to attainment of, or eligibility for, classification as a permanent employee of a school district.

This bill would, commencing July 1, 2025, repeal that prohibition and instead require service by a person as an instructor in classes conducted at regional occupational centers or programs to be included in computing the service required as a prerequisite to attainment of, or eligibility for, classification as a permanent employee of a school district.
