Hearings on Cardona’s Higher Ed Regulatory Agenda

The Biden administration this week will hold three public listening sessions to discuss its next round of higher education rulemaking slated for this fall. The Education Department will hold day-long hearings on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday this week to solicit public input on a wide range of higher education policies.
On the agenda: rules governing the Federal TRIO programs; third-party servicers such as online program management companies; distance education programs; accreditation; and the policies known as “cash management” that govern how colleges disburse federal aid to their students.
