Dual enrollment programs, all local education agencies required to allow student participation in programs offered by two-year and four-year colleges and universities

Expanded the list of eligible institutions from 'local community colleges' to 'local community colleges or universities', allowing high school students to enroll in dual credit courses at four-year public institutions.

Added a new definition for 'University' to clarify that it refers to a four-year public institution of higher education.

Changed the requirement for implementation guidelines to include input from and collaboration with universities, in addition to the State Department of Education and the Alabama Community College System.

Updated the financial responsibility clause to explicitly mention 'agreement between the local education agency and the local community college or university' as a condition for cost exemptions.

Replaced the phrase 'completion of' with 'passing of' approved dual enrollment courses when describing how agencies must award high school credit.

Updated bill tracking numbers and page headers to reflect the engrossed status and new bill identifier.
