Does this program meet requirements for licensure in my state?
Each state and U.S. territory may have different professional licensure and certification requirements from those in the state of Louisiana. Louisiana Tech University works to confirm if programs meet the educational prerequisites for professional licensure or certification outside the state of Louisiana. Other licensure or certification requirements may include professional examinations, background checks, years of work experience, fingerprinting requirements, etc. Students who are considering an academic program that may allow them to pursue professional licensure in their state or territory are strongly encouraged to check their state’s or territory’s information below and contact the appropriate licensing agency to seek information and additional guidance before beginning a program outside of their state. Licensing board and contact information is provided for each state and program.
Potential changes in requirements: Licensure and certification information is reviewed and updated on this site in May of each year. Students who plan to pursue licensure or certification outside of Louisiana should be aware that state licensure requirements are subject to changes. While a program may originally meet the educational requirements for licensure, changes in requirements could impact the program’s ability to meet any new educational requirements. Students should always check with their state licensure board to confirm licensure requirements.
