The Board recognizes the unique challenges of obtaining and maintaining licensure for those who are serving on active duty in the military or who are the spouse of a person serving on active duty in the military.
In its review of applications for licensure, licensure renewal, and requests for inactivation or reactivation of licensure status, the board shall exercise authority to examine individual circumstances related to applicants who are serving on active duty in the military or who are the spouse of a person serving on active duty in the military. In such cases, the Board may accept alternative means of verification as well as grant exceptions for educational requirements, supervised experience requirements, and examination requirements. The Board examine each case and determine eligibility for exceptions based on this review but in so doing shall not compromise its mission of public protection.
