Plain-English Summary

This bill requires special education administrators in Oklahoma to hold a valid teaching certificate and obtain an acknowledgment of competency by July 1, 2025. To get this acknowledgment, administrators must complete 150 hours of training, including on the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA), and pass a competency exam with at least a 70%. However, those with a valid Special Education Teaching Certificate are exempt from this new competency requirement.
