LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 467, Portantino. Community colleges: apprenticeship or internship training programs.

Existing law authorizes the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges to establish internship training programs and actively support apprenticeship and preapprenticeship training programs in collaboration with the Division of Apprenticeship Standards of the Department of Industrial Relations. Existing law authorizes a student enrolled in a community college class or classes pursuant to an apprenticeship training program or an internship training program who does not have a social security number to use an individual tax identification number for purposes of any background check required by the class or program.

This bill would prohibit a student from being denied admission to a community college apprenticeship or internship training program because the student uses an individual tax identification number for purposes of the background check required by the class or program.

Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: NO Local Program: NO

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1.

Section 79149.25 of the Education Code is amended to read:

79149.25.

A student enrolled in a community college class or classes pursuant to an apprenticeship training program or an internship training program who does not have a social security number may use an individual tax identification number for purposes of any background check required by the class or program. A student shall not be denied admission to an apprenticeship or internship training program because the student uses an individual tax identification number pursuant to this section.
