alifornia Firefighter Joint Apprenticeship Program.

Existing law establishes the California Firefighter Joint
Apprenticeship Program and prescribes requirements for classes of
related and supplemental instruction in order to qualify for funding,
including that the person providing instruction is qualified, by
means of education or experience, as a journeyman, and shares the
responsibility for supervision of the apprentices participating in
the classes with the certified community college or adult education
coordinator.
This bill would provide, for purposes of issuing credentials to
instructors who are required to obtain a specified credential in
order to provide instruction as part of the program, that completion
of a specified training instructor course and certification as an
EMT-I, EMT-II, or EMT-P meet certain of the requirements for that
credential.
Under the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, a seller may accept the
return of beer from a retailer only if the beer is returned in
exchange for the identical quantity and brand of beer. An exception
to that provision permits a seller to accept the return of beer from
a seasonal or temporary licensee, as specified.
This bill would expand that exception to provide that an alcoholic
beverage licensee may accept the return of unsold and unopened beer
from organizations that obtain a particular license, as specified.
