STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS29952C1 / H0074
Consistent with the Governors Occupational Licensing Reform Act, the legislation creates a universal work
recognition licensure pathway for individuals with four years of work experience in the military, another state,
district, or territory of the United States that does not require a license to regulate that person’s profession or
occupation but for which Idaho uses a license to regulate a profession or occupation. The bill removes outdated
methods of establishing competency for licensure and clarifies that a board or commission decision related to
a criminal conviction must be relevant to the occupation and license requested.
FISCAL NOTE
This legislation will have no impact on the states General fund or any dedicated fund or federal fund. The
legislation does not add any fee schedules to the Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses dedicated
fund.
