AN ACT relating to licensed occupations.

Complete·4/10/26

Kentucky HB459 establishes data collection requirements for licensed occupations and streamlines licensure for out-of-state marriage and family.

Kentucky HB459 mandates that specific licensing authorities collect data from licensees during their renewal process, including personal information and workforce participation details. This data will be reported to the Office of the Kentucky Center for Statistics and the Cabinet for Health and Family Services. The bill also simplifies the licensure process for out-of-state marriage and family therapists by exempting them from certain education and experience requirements.
