THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
HB 260 establishes the First Credential program with $2,000,000 one-time and $27,800,000 in additional funding, plus an oversight committee and online application system. LEAs must submit needs assessments and plans for creating or expanding credential opportunities, including procurement of industry certification licenses and employer-aligned programs. Workforce training vendors, assessment/certification providers, and CTE consultants have a sizable, multi-year opportunity to support districts in designing and delivering approved credential pathways.
USBE will automatically include industry-recognized credentials on an initial list and review within one year; grants will be awarded to LEAs.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
