STATE REGULATORY INFORMATION

Effective January 1, 1989, the Colorado legislature enacted the Private Occupational Educational Act of 1981. Legislative declaration. (1) It is the purpose of this article to provide standards for and to foster and improve private occupational schools and their educational services and to protect the citizens of this state against fraudulent or substandard private occupational schools by:

  1. Prohibiting the use of false or misleading literature, advertising, or representations by private occupational schools or their agents;
  2. Establishing accountability for private occupational schools and their agents through the setting of standards relative to the quality of educational services, fiscal responsibility, and ethical business practices;
  3. Providing for the preservation of essential records;
  4. Providing certain rights and remedies to the state board for community colleges and occupational education and the consuming public necessary to effectuate the purposes of this article; and
  5. Providing for the authorization of appropriate educational credentials by approved schools including, but not limited to, certificates, diplomas, and associate degrees.

"Private occupational school" or "school" means any entity or institution for profit or not for profit located within or without this state which offers educational credentials of educational services that constitute occupational education in this state and which is not specifically exempt from the provisions of this article.

"Educational services" or "education" includes, but is not limited to, and class, course, or program of training, instruction, or study which is designed or is purported to meet all or part of the requirements for employment in an agricultural, trade, industrial, technical, business, office, sales, service, or health occupation and which constitutes occupational education.

Issuance of certificates of approval.

  1. Following the review and evaluation of an application for a certificate of approval and any further information required by the state board to be submitted by the applicant and such investigation and appraisal of the applicant as the state deems necessary or appropriate, the state board shall either grant or deny a certificate of approval to the applicant. A certificate of approval shall be issued to the applicant in the name of the school and shall state in clear and conspicuous language the name and address of the school, the date of issuance, and the term of approval.
  2. The term for which a certificate of approval is issued shall be for three years commencing on July 1 and expiring on June 30 of the third year thereafter or upon the cessation of operation of the school. New schools shall be issued a provisional certificate of approval which shall expire on June 30 of the second year following the date of issuance or upon the cessation of operation of the school.
  3. At any time within the period of a certificate of approval, the state board may require the school to submit supplementary documentation or information deemed necessary to enable the state board to determine whether said school is continuing to be operated in compliance with the provisions of this article.

No occupational school, covered by the Act of 1981, will be issued a certificate of approval by the state board unless it can demonstrate it has sufficient financial resources to fulfill its commitments to students, make proper refunds of tuition and fees (as outlined in the Act of 1981), meet the school's financial obligations as well as furnish and maintain the required surety bonds. The school must have adequate facilities, equipment, instructional materials and staff (with sufficient education and experience qualifications); provide a catalog; maintain adequate educational and financial records; comply with pertinent ordinances and laws relative to the health and safety of all upon its premises. It also must not discriminate on account of race, color, creed, national origin or sex; and it must provide each student with an agreement or contract; submit to the state board the names of its agents; designate an agent (who shall be maintained continuously) upon whom any process, notice or demand may be served. Finally, upon satisfactory completion of training, the students are to be given appropriate educational credentials such as diplomas, certificates, or associate degrees. In addition to establishing the minimum criteria outlined above for granting approval, the state board establishes criteria for agent's permits; it investigates and evaluates applications; publishes and maintains a list of schools authorized to operate within Colorado; enforces an institution's record keeping; posts school closure notices; may investigate - including physical inspection of records and facilities - an institution; deny or revoke permits; hold hearings; negotiate and enter into interstate reciprocity agreements with similar agencies; promulgate rules and regulations or adopt procedures necessary or appropriate for the conduct of its work and the implementation of the Colorado Private Occupational Education Act of 1981. It, or the district attorney, may invoke civil or criminal (or both) penalties against a school.
