The section requires the Governor, after consulting the State board, to find that the program teaches skills matching high-skill, high-wage or in-demand sectors as identified under section 122 of the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act, meets employers' hiring requirements, either leads to a recognized credential that stacks and carries across more than one employer or gives the only credential the occupation has, and prepares students for further certificate or degree programs, with credit that will be accepted toward them.

The Governor must first look at the course. The State board is consulted. The tests that follow say what is checked.
The course must match jobs in demand. It must meet what employers ask for. It must lead to a credential that carries over.
