§ 303.002. WAIVER. (a) The commission may review and
recommend to the legislature the waiver of any requirements set
forth in Title 3, Education Code, as they may apply to public
community and technical colleges, that impede the ability of such a
college to develop in a timely manner customized training for
demand occupations in particular industries, including statutes or
regulations limiting costs that may be recovered by a public
community or technical college from state funds.
(b) A public community or technical college or the Texas
Engineering Extension Service may recover customized assessment
and training costs incurred by the institution if:
(1) there is an actual or projected labor shortage in
the occupation in which training is provided that is not being met
by an existing institution or program in the area; and
(2) the wages at the time of job placement for
individuals who successfully complete customized training at the
public community or technical college or the Texas Engineering

occupation in the local labor market area.
