Iowa HF2272 modifies renewal requirements for certain licensed practitioners, exempting them from renewal if they have been employed for at least 10.

Iowa HF2272 amends the renewal requirements for licenses issued by the board of educational examiners (BOEE) to certain specified practitioners. The bill exempts practitioners from renewal if they have been employed for at least 10 years and hold a master’s or doctoral degree, or for at least 20 years. However, those holding an evaluator approval endorsement must still renew every ten years. The BOEE is mandated to conduct criminal history registry checks every five years for these practitioners. The bill does not alter the BOEE’s authority to deny or revoke licenses.
