A bill for an act relating to education programs and systems, including career and technical education expenditures and definitions, statewide lower division general education framework and common course numbering systems, and the implementation of a statewide corequisite model in Iowa community colleges.
Signed by Governor. H.J. 1167.
Summary
The bill updates Iowa’s career and technical education (CTE) program by defining high‑demand, high‑skill, and high‑wage occupations and requiring districts to align spending and curricula to those occupations. It also mandates a statewide lower‑division general‑education framework and a uniform alphanumeric course‑numbering system for community colleges, and requires those colleges to replace traditional remedial math and English courses with corequisite models by 2028‑29. The changes aim to improve transparency, transferability, and workforce alignment for students.
