An act to amend 2015 PA 45, entitled “An act to provide for the reciprocal exchange of distance education between this state and other states or a higher education compact; to prescribe the powers and duties of certain state agencies and officials; to provide for collection of fees; to designate the state agency for negotiating distance education agreements; to establish a complaint process for students enrolled in distance education programs at participating colleges and universities; to establish an authorization and approval process for out-of-state distance education providers and participating colleges and universities in this state; to provide penalties; and to repeal acts and parts of acts,” by amending section 7 (MCL 390.1697), as amended by 2017 PA 99.
House Bill 4892 would amend the Higher Education Authorization and Distance Education Reciprocal Exchange Act to extend the act’s sunset (expiration date) to September 30, 2029. The sunset was last extended by 2017 PA 99, 1 which moved it from September 30, 2017, to the current September 30, 2023. If no action is taken regarding the current sunset, the act will be repealed on that date.
