New Jersey A1879 requires professional boards to issue licenses to veterans with good standing credentials from another jurisdiction.
New Jersey A1879 mandates professional and occupational boards to issue licenses, certificates, or certifications to veterans who were honorably discharged from active military service, hold a good standing license or certification from another jurisdiction, and meet all other licensure requirements. This reciprocity aims to help veterans with transferable skills and experience find employment in New Jersey. The bill also requires boards to provide methods of evaluating equivalent training, education, or experience, without mandating the same number of hours of experience.
