Summary

The bill directs the Indiana Department of Education to elect participation as a covered state in the federal Section 25F tax‑credit scholarship program for elementary and secondary students, and revises the definition of scholarship‑granting organizations. It also orders the governor and the Department of Workforce Development, in consultation with the higher‑education commission, to set up procedures for identifying, approving, and reporting on eligible workforce training programs that qualify for federal Pell‑grant rules. The changes would impact schools, scholarship organizations, and workforce‑training providers across the state.
