About SB554 Changes

Q. What is SB554?

According to the California Legislative Information website, “(SB554) authorizes the governing board of a school district overseeing an adult education program or the governing board of a community college district overseeing a noncredit program to authorize a student pursuing a high school diploma or a high school equivalency certificate to enroll as a special part-time student at a community college.”

The intent of this section is to better facilitate streamlined enrollment in colocated credit college courses on adult education and noncredit program sites and to help ensure a smoother transition from secondary education to college for adult high school equivalency students by providing them with greater exposure to the collegiate atmosphere.
