What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, in order to obtain most credentials issued by the

Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS) or an associated

credentialing board, an applicant must, when submitting application materials, pay

an initial credential fee in an amount determined by DSPS.

This bill requires DSPS to do the following with respect to most credentials: 1)

divide the period between consecutive renewal dates for the credential into eight

periods that are as equal as possible in the number of days; and 2) subtract from the

total initial credential fee an amount that is equal to one eighth of the total initial

credential fee multiplied by the number of those periods that have completely

elapsed since the most recent renewal date for the initial credential, as of the date

the applicant submits the application materials for the initial credential to DSPS.
