A bill for an act relating to the employment of school bus drivers who have completed a department of education approved course of instruction.

HF 733 modifies Iowa's requirements for school bus driver certification. It states that drivers who have completed a department-approved training course within the last 24 months do not need to retake the course when moving to a new school district, as long as they complete the next required training within 24 months of their previous completion. This applies to drivers employed by Iowa school districts and affects how districts handle certification transfers. The bill streamlines the process for drivers switching employers while maintaining the core requirement to complete training every 24 months.
