What do Regulatory Boards get from PACE?
Member boards retain authorityRegulatory boards are the FCLB
Elect the decision-makersContinued voice in the evolution of the
PACE governing documentsBoards still approve non-PACE
courses directly(more…)
![Page 15: PACE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681684c550346895dde48b6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Authority PACE WILL NOT and CANNOT be the only
approval process available Boards are legally required to maintain
their authority PACE is a means of delegating some of the
workload associated with that authority PACE is also a way of pooling resources with
other boards—that’s why the FCLB is here!(more…)
![Page 16: PACE](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681684c550346895dde48b6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Authority PACE is a multi-layer program Relies on participation by:
regulatory boards ACC colleges licensing board administrators
However, the FCLB Board of Directors (elected by regulatory boards) is ultimately responsible for determining PACE approval
