 The NLNAC Board of Commissioners
wishes to congratulate Dr. Sharon Tanner for her appointment as
Primary Negotiator for a negotiated rulemaking committee under the
US Department of Education.The Higher Education Opportunity Act (Public Law 110-315) (HEOA) was enacted on August 14, 2008, and reauthorizes the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA).The US Department of Education (DOE) established five negotiated rulemaking committees to prepare proposed regulations under Title IV of the amended HEA. Dr. Sharon Tanner, NLNAC Executive Director, has been appointed to serve as the Primary Negotiator representing specialized accrediting agencies of the Accreditation Team. The negotiated rulemaking process will be used to implement some of the law through new or revised regulations, while other areas will be regulated through the usual process of public comment or as technical changes. Under negotiated rulemaking, the DOE works in collaboration with representatives of the parties significantly affected by the regulations. The Board of Commissioners and staff of NLNAC are extremely proud of Dr. Tanner's accomplishments and her continuing contributions to education and wish her success in this prestigious appointment. |
