9. | Regulation
After a prior regulation to define “an eligible program of training to prepare students for gainful employment in a recognized occupation,” 20 U.S.C. § 1002(b)(1)(A)(i), was judicially invalidated, the Department on April 16, 2013 announced that it would add gainful employment, program integrity, Title IV cash management, and state authorization of distance education among others to a negotiated rulemaking previously initiated in May 2012. On June 12, 2013, the Department announced that it would establish a separate negotiated rulemaking committee to consider the issue of gainful employment. The Committee will meet in September and October.
