2015 - 2016 LEGISLATURE
DOA:......Potts, BB0173 - Four-year professional license renewal cycles
For 2015-2017 Budget -- Not Ready For Introduction
An Act ...; relating to: the budget.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
safety and professional services
Professional licensure
Under current law, the period of licensure, certification, or registration for most credentials issued by DSPS or an attached credentialing board is two years, with specific renewal dates in either the odd-numbered or even-numbered year listed in the statutes. For example, under current law, the renewal date for a real estate broker license is December 15 of each even-numbered year.
This bill instead provides that the period of licensure, certification, or registration for those credentials is 4 years, staggered so that the actual renewal dates for credential holders who have even-numbered birth years are two years apart from the renewal dates for credential holders who have odd-numbered birth years. The bill does not modify the precise renewal months and days that apply to each credential.
The bill provides that the change from two-year to four-year credential periods takes effect on July 1, 2016, but that DSPS may establish a system to transition credential holders from 2-year to 4-year licensure periods by phasing in the change so that certain credentials may have one more renewal for a two-year period after July 1, 2016.
To account for the change from 2-year to 4-year credential periods, the bill modifies numerous provisions regarding continuing education requirements for various credentials, which credential holders must generally satisfy in order to renew a credential.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
