Section 313(2)(a) defines an educational institution as any educational institution of post-secondary grade subject to the visitation, examination or inspection by the state board of regents or the state commissioner of education and any business or trade school in the state. The Regents and the Commissioner of Education enforce the section's unfair educational practice procedure under section 313(5).
