California Community Colleges: remedial coursework.

Abstract

Existing law, the Donahoe Higher Education Act, establishes the 3 segments of public postsecondary education in this state, including the California Community Colleges, administered by the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges. This bill would require the California Community Colleges to provide for entrance counseling and assessment or other suitable means to fully inform an incoming student, prior to that student completing registration, of any remedial coursework the student will be required to register for or complete and the reasons for the requirement, exemption policies, and the availability of any test preparation workshops or programs. By placing additional duties upon a community college district, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
