VETT Act

Sponsored By: Representative Van Orden, Derrick [R-WI-3]

Passed House

Summary

Improving transparency for veterans choosing education programs. The VETT Act would require schools that cannot give a complete personalized enrollment form to instead say which items may be missing and supply their best estimate. It would also require the VA to maintain a central website that posts and regularly updates information about training for school certifying officials.

Show full summary
  • Veterans and students would get clearer pre-enrollment notices that identify which cost, aid, or outcome data may be incomplete and provide the school's best available estimate.
  • Educational institutions would be allowed to submit a form with an attached notice when they cannot produce every required data point and must include the best estimate available on the notice date.
  • School certifying officials and the public would have one VA website to find and track information about the training those officials receive, updated on a regular basis.
