Teacher credentialing: computer science instruction: workgroup.

Summary

AB 811 pushes back the deadlines for the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing to convene a computer‑science credential workgroup and to issue its report, and it delays the repeal of those provisions. It also adds a new section that lets the commission approve prior work experience as an alternative way to meet credential requirements starting in 2029. The bill affects teachers, credentialing officials, and schools that need qualified computer‑science instructors.
