HB 17-1041

House Bill 17-1041, which has been signed into law, requires Colorado public schools to inform students and their parents about the career opportunities available through military enlistment when helping them create an Individual Career and Academic Plan (ICAP). Schools are also encouraged to provide information on the military enlistment test. This bill affects all students in Colorado's public school system who are creating or updating their ICAPs, as well as their parents. Since it has been signed into law, schools must now include this information when assisting students with their career planning.
