What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Veterinary Examining Board (board) in the Department

of Regulation and Licensing (department) may issue a veterinary license to an

applicant for an initial license who passes an examination conducted by the board,

pays a fee to the department, and is either a graduate of a veterinary college

approved by the board or has successfully completed the Educational Commission

for Foreign Veterinary Graduates certification program of the American Veterinary

Medical Association.

This bill authorizes the board to also issue an initial veterinary license to a

person who passes an examination conducted by the board, pays a fee to the

department, and has successfully completed the Program for the Assessment of

Veterinary Education Equivalence offered by the American Association of Veterinary

State Boards.
