Summary
Amends the Dual Credit Quality Act. Changes the term "institution" to "postsecondary institution". Expands on the purpose of the Act. Requires the school district and community college district to designate a liaison and begin negotiations to reach a partnership agreement no later than 60 calendar days after the initial request. Provides that the course content, course delivery, and course rigor evaluation shall be completed within the same school year that the course is taught. Provides that prior to offering dual credit coursework with any postsecondary institution other than a community college, a school district shall first negotiate with the designated liaison of the school district's local community district to seek a partnership agreement with the community college district. Prohibits the school district from entering into a contract with an out-of-state postsecondary institution on or after the effective date of the amendatory Act until the school district has demonstrated to the Illinois Community College Board that the school district has taken appropriate steps to consider the listing of in-state postsecondary institutions and provides a rationale as to why the course can be provided only by an out-of-state postsecondary institution. Creates the Dual Credit Committee. Provides that the academic credentials required to be a fully qualified instructor shall include either a master's degree in the discipline to be taught or a master's degree in any other discipline and a minimum of, but not more than, 18 graduate hours in the discipline to be taught. Sets forth notice requirements for disapproval of course requests, instructors, or course documentation or withdrawal of course or instructor approval and an appeal process. Requires, 5 years after the effective date of the amendatory Act, the Illinois Community College Board to conduct a study concerning the impact of the changes made by the amendatory Act. Provides that the study shall be submitted to the General Assembly and the Governor by October 1, 2030 and published on the Illinois Community College Board's website. Makes other changes. Effective immediately.
