Relating to an inventory of credentials and certificates that may
be earned by a public high school student through a career and
technology education program.

Bill Analysis
HB 2729 would have the Texas Workforce Commission and the Texas Higher Education Board work with school districts to post careers and certifications that are available for high school students in the technological field.
Vote Recommendation Notes
This bill does not have a connection to our liberty principles, therefore we remain neutral. However we do note that helping provide students with more options on what they can pursue after high school is an improvement of our education system.
