Professional Licensure Disclosure

 

LICENSURE


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 or reciprocity agreements.

For information on teaching reciprocity, please see the NASDTEC website-

SCOPE OF PROGRAM ASSESSMENT

The information provided in the following tables is an assessment of whether the educational program, if successfully completed, meets a state or protectorate’s educational requirements for licensure/certification. 

Ó£ÌÒÊÓƵ's analysis is limited to a determination as to whether their programs meet the educational requirements for licensure or state certification,

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.
