| (a) Authorized course providers. Training under this division must be provided by a regional education service center (RESC) or by a course provider registered with the commissioner of education under this section. Training provided by a course provider that is not registered under this section at the time of training does not satisfy training requirements specified in this division. The fee for a course or module of training shall be determined by the RESC or registered course provider. (b) Application for registration; qualifications. An applicant for course provider registration must file with the commissioner documents and information demonstrating a history of training experience and subject-matter expertise in each area covered by a training course required by this division. (1) The course provider may apply to be registered as a course provider for one or more training courses, and may submit documents and information about more than one instructor. However, each instructor must be under contract to teach the course or module for the applicable period of registration. (2) The course provider is not registered under this section until it receives written notice of registration under this section. (c) Compliance with training rules. A registered course provider that fails to comply with §§100.1102-100.1107 of this division will not be registered in any subsequent year. A person who completes a training course that does not comply with §§100.1102-100.1105 and curriculum outlines approved thereunder has not satisfied the requirements for continued service. (d) Annual registration; no renewal. Initial registration under this section is effective for 18 months. Thereafter, re-registration may be for a period of up to three years. Re-registration is by original application under this section, except that the process for re-registration of a registered course provider must include an opportunity for stakeholder comment on that course provider's performance. A successful application for registration in a prior registration period confers no right or expectation that the commissioner will grant an application for registration in a subsequent year. |
