What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS)

and examining boards and affiliated credentialing boards under DSPS administer

Wisconsin's professional credentialing laws. Different credentials have different

education, training, or other experience requirements that must be met before a

person may receive the credential.

Under this bill, a credential applicant's education, training, or other experience

obtained in connection with the applicant's service in the U.S. armed forces, the state

defense force, the national guard of any state, or any other reserve component of the

U.S. armed forces satisfies that credential's education, training, or other experience

requirements, unless DSPS or the board that issues the credential determines that

the applicant's military education, training, or other experience is not substantially

equivalent to the requirements for the credential.
