Educational Approval Board
(CR 97-35)
EAB Code - Approving and licensing schools and programs, setting fees, advertising, setting, setting bond levels, defining tuition refund policy and procedures, outlining compliant procedures, mandating records retention and all matters related to the oversight of approved postsecondary educational institutions.
Summary of Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis:
This proposed rule is not expected to affect small businesses except those engaged in providing education and training as private schools.
In accordance with the requirements of s. 227.19(3)(e), Stats., the EAB provides the following analysis of the administrative rule:
1. The proposed rules already incorporated many of the methods suggested in s. 227.114 (2), Stats., for reducing the impact of a regulation upon a small business; i.e., on the private schools under the purview of the EAB. The rules as drafted establish less stringent compliance requirements and simplify reporting demands. They enable the consolidation of previous applications into a Single Application which will reduce administrative and planing demands on schools. In general, the proposed rule seeks simplification and streamlining in recognition that appropriate oversight by the EAB can ensure needed protection for students and quality programs without placing undue burdens on schools.
2. The summary of comments forwarded to the EAB, or offered at the public hearing, generally came from schools which are, as noted above, meet the definition of small businesses as noted in s. 227.114 (1), Stats.
3. The reports required of schools are contained in the body of proposed rules and have been designed to produce the least burden on schools.
4. No measures or investments are required of small businesses, or schools, to comply with this rule.
5. The methods suggested by s. 227.114(2) are already incorporated into EAB practice and procedures and should result in additional cost to the EAB.
6. There is no apparent impact on public health, safety and welfare of including the methods specified in s. 227.114(2).
