Louisiana Revised Statutes Tit. 17, § 419.4. Required teacher training and student instruction; effectiveness

A requirement for additional teacher training shall become effective only if provision is made for teachers to receive the training at a time when they are being compensated and not participating in local professional development activities or the burden of the requirement is offset by the elimination of another training requirement, completion of which requires at least the same amount of time as the additional requirement.

B. A requirement for additional student instruction shall become effective only if the requirement is offset by the elimination of another instructional requirement, completion of which requires at least the same amount of time as the additional requirement.
