AN ACT ALLOWING LEARNING IN RETIREMENT PROGRAMS AT CONNECTICUT STATE COMMUNITY COLLEGE CAMPUSES.
SB 979 requires Connecticut State Community Colleges to permit "Learning in Retirement" programs to operate on their campuses. This bill directly affects the colleges and the program participants, who are typically older adults seeking educational opportunities. The key provision amends state statutes to mandate that campuses must allow these programs, providing a formal pathway for their establishment without requiring additional approvals. The bill focuses solely on enabling access to existing programs, not creating new funding or services.
