The Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) and Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR)
Each executive department and agency of the federal government, including the U.S. Department of Education (ED), publishes general and permanent rules in the Federal Register. Those general and permanent rules are codified in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). The code is divided into 50 titles that represent broad areas subject to federal regulation, with Title 34 representing education. The Education Department General Administrative Regulations, or EDGAR, is codified at Parts 74-86 and 97-99 of Title 34 of the CFR. EDGAR includes regulations related to the administration of grants and agreements, intergovernmental review of ED grants and activities, protection of human subjects, and more.
