9 2017 Trends Compacts Military Families Exam/Education Reduction Reciprocity Individuals with Criminal Records Delicensing Measure

10 Compacts: AL HB 250- Emergency Medical Services Personnel- establishes the Emergency Medical Services Personnel Licensure Interstate Compact, provides reciprocity among member States on matters relating to discipline and conditions of practice of EMS personnel. DE SB 59- Nurse Multistate Licensure Compact- Replaces the current multistate nurse licensure compact with an enhanced version, allows for registered nurses and licensed practical nurses to have one multistate license, with the privilege to practice in their home state and other compact states.

11 Military Families AR HB Temporary Licensure for Active Duty Service Members- Requires state boards and commissions to promulgate rules for temporary licensure, certification, or permitting of spouses of active duty service members. TX HB Establishes temporary certification of an educator from outside the state who is the spouse of an active duty military service member.

28 The National Occupational Licensing Database Available data relating to occupational licensing laws and requirements collected at the state level The dataset provides details on the prevalence and levels of initial and continuing education requirements, the number and frequency of examinations, amount of occupational or professional experience or other job training and the monetary fees associated with receiving a license
