U.S. Department of Education Virtual Listening Sessions

The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Postsecondary Education (OPE) announces virtual listening sessions to receive public comments, recommendations, and suggestions to improve guidance on the incentive compensation prohibition under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA), particularly with respect to bundled services.

March 9, 2023, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., Eastern time

Please note that you are registering for the event by completing this link. Speaking registration is separate. Individuals who would like to present comments at the virtual listening sessions must register by sending an email message to Margo.Schroeder@ed.gov no later than 12:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the business day prior to the listening session at which they want to speak. The message should include the name of the speaker, the email address of the speaker, and one or more dates and times during which the individual would be available to speak. We will attempt to accommodate each speaker's preference for date and time; however, if we are unable to do so, we will make the determination on a first-come, first-served basis, based on the time and date we received the message. We will limit each participant's comments to 3 minutes.
