어떤 발표인가
Federal Trade Commission staff on Tuesday endorsed the Florida Supreme Court’s decision to eliminate the American Bar Association’s (ABA) status as the sole accrediting agency dictating the educational requirements to take the bar exam and become a licensed attorney in Florida.
핵심 내용
- Responding to the court’s invitation for comment, the directors of the Office of Policy Planning and Bureau of Competition sent a letter concurring with the court’s conclusion that the prior rule was “not in Floridians’ best interest.” Previously, to be eligible to take the Florida bar exam, applicants had to obtain their legal education from a law school “approved by the American Bar Association,” making the ABA the gatekeeper for Florida bar eligibility.
- The Florida Supreme Court action extends accreditation authority to certain types of accrediting agencies recognized by the U.S.
- Department of Education and, where appropriate, approved by the court.
- The letter lauded the court’s decision to “create the opportunity for additional entities to carry out an accrediting and gatekeeping function” and encouraged the court’s efforts to promote the recognition of new accreditors.
