Higher Education - Workforce Pell Grant Program - Implementation

Summary

The bill creates a process for Maryland’s governor, after consulting the Workforce Development Board and the Higher Education Commission, to approve short‑term post‑secondary programs that can receive federal Workforce Pell Grant funds. It sets standards for program length, content, completion and job‑placement rates, and requires institutions to meet them to get approval. The law also limits how institutions can market and disburse these funds and allows revocation for unfair practices.
