for distance education regulations in the Federal Register. These rules will go into effect on July 1, 2020. This webcast will give a detailed overview on key provisions contained within the regulations, including the implications to the institution for implementation
of the regulations. For this webcast, the focus will be on the final federal regulations pertaining to state authorization, with particular emphasis on:</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:#2B2B2B"><br>
<br>
<span style="background:white">• The state authorization reciprocity agreement definition;</span><br>
<span style="background:white">• The international campus requirements;</span><br>
<span style="background:white">• The new language impacting programs leading to professional licensure – regardless of mode of delivery;</span><br>
<span style="background:white">• The requirement that institutions determine in which states students are located for the purpose of issuing state-specific disclosures;</span><br>
<span style="background:white">• The general and direct disclosures for enrolled and prospective students;</span><br>
<span style="background:white">• An explanation and review of early implementation opportunities provided for some provisions.</span><br>
