Bill	Expanding Concurrent Enrollment Opportunities	Concurrent enrollment - transfer of credits - website - concurrent enrollment expansion and innovation grant program - appropriations. The act clarifies the differences between concurrent enrollment, dual enrollment, and other programs that enable a student to earn postsecondary credits while the student is enrolled in high school. Beginning in the 2020-21 school year, each school district, charter school, and public school operated by a board of cooperative services (local education provider) that enrolls students in grades 9 through 12 is required to provide the opportunity for concurrent enrollment. A local education provider cannot unreasonably deny approval for concurrent enrollment or limit the number of postsecondary courses in which a qualified student may enroll unless the local education provider is unable to provide access due to technological capacity. A local education provider may determine the manner in which it provides opportunities for concurrent enrollment.	us/states/co	Colorado General Assembly	2019A	SB 19-176	Colorado SB 19-176 (2019A)	bill		enacted	Jeff Bridges Julie McCluskie Paul Lundeen Tim Geitner	12	15	4	2019-03-01T07:00:00+00:00	2019-05-20T06:00:00+00:00	openstates	ocd-bill/570369c9-cdc8-42b3-beb0-fddab528067d	http://leg.colorado.gov/bills/sb19-176	af15971aac2eee684af31642c8674b637093b4d3955f69d4b26cce20f8a2d473	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-co
