PROFESSIONAL LICENSURE DISCLOSURE
LICENSING DISCLOSURE INFORMATION
For all programs marketed or designed as leading to licensure or certification, the
following federal regulations must be complied with by institutions of higher education:
For Online Programs
34 CFR 668.14(b)(32)
All programs that lead to licensure/certification must meet the educational requirements in each state and protectorate in which any of their students are located at the time of initial enrollment or in the state in which a student attests they intend to seek employment. Students cannot be enrolled into programs if the educational requirements are not met unless they are moving to a state in which the requirements are met and execute an attestation confirming their future relocation.
For Face-to-Face Programs
Regulation- 34 CFR 668.43(a)(5)(v)
All programs that lead to licensure/certification must disclose whether the program meets, does not meet or if a determination cannot be made as to whether the program meets the educational requirements in each state and protectorate.
Since the program is a face-to-face program, students can be admitted even if the state in which they previously resided is a state in which the program does not meet the educational requirements for licensure/certification.
Determinations
Determinations made by our subject matter experts (program coordinators) are made
based on state licensing board rules and regulations and/or reciprocity agreements.
For information on teaching reciprocity, please see the NASDTEC website- https://www.nasdtec.net/page/InterstateAgreements
SCOPE OF PROGRAM ASSESSMENT
The information provided regarding 欧美AV programs represents an assessment of whether
the educational program, if successfully completed, meets a state or protectorate鈥檚
educational requirements for licensure/certification.
欧美AV's analysis is limited to a determination as to whether their programs meet the
educational requirements for licensure.
Additional requirements may be required to obtain a license or state certification.
For a list of potential additional requirements, see the Professional Licensure webpage-
/professional-licensure-certification-disclosures/index.php
ROLE OF LICENSING/CERTIFICATION BOARD
Keep in mind that final eligibility determinations as to whether a program meets the
educational requirements for licensure are made by the state/protectorate licensing/certification
boards.
TIMEFRAME OF DISCLOSURES
The disclosure data is current as of July 1 of each year (starting with 2024) unless
the institution is apprised of a change which requires an update prior to the July
1st annual update. Federal Law requires that if an institution discovers that a program
no longer leads to licensure or certification, the institution must notify the students
(both enrolled and prospective) of the change directly (individual disclosure) as
well as updating the webpage.
APPROPRIATE USE OF DISCLOSURE DATA
Review the information about the licensure program and then consider discussing the
information with the program coordinator as well as the state licensing board.
Licensure Requirements Generally
Licensing boards require more than successful degree completion to obtain a license
or certification and laws relating to licensure/certification may change at any time,
which may affect the educational requirements for licensure/certification.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS
In addition to educational requirements, the licensing boards for each of the states
and the protectorates (American Samoa, Federated States of Micronesia, Guam, Northern
Mariana Islands, Republic of Palau, Puerto Rico, Republic of the Marshall Islands,
and Virgin Islands) may require applicants to meet other requirements including, but
not limited to, age, citizenship, examinations, clinical hours, criminal background
checks, professional experience (which may require years of experience), residency,
and specialized courses (not offered as part of any institutional curriculum) (i.e.,
History of the State, Ethics), etc.
