HF 256: Relating to the minimum age of applicants for licenses from the board of educational examiners

What it does

This bill relates to the minimum age of applicants for licenses from the board of educational examiners (BOEE). Current law requires the BOEE to adopt rules that require the BOEE to disqualify an applicant for a license if the applicant is less than years of age, with certain limited exceptions. The bill strikes this requirement and makes conforming changes.
