HB 2555 eliminates fees for bilingual education certification exams in Texas. The bill requires the State Board for Educator Certification (SBEC) to waive exam fees for individuals seeking certification to teach bilingual education. Additionally, SBEC must cover any vendor-imposed testing fees on behalf of candidates. The goal is to increase the number of certified bilingual educators by removing financial barriers to certification.
