Amendment SSA2-SB677

3. The teacher who provides instruction in the course when offered to a public school pupil is employed by the school district or, when offered to a private school pupil, by the governing body of the private school and the teacher has been certified or approved to teach the course by the participating University of Wisconsin System institution or private, nonprofit postsecondary institution.

This substitute amendment also eliminates a requirement that a private institution of higher education and a tribally controlled college notify the state superintendent of its intent to participate in the ECCP as a condition of participating in the ECCP.
