Details

Timeline: US-educated endorsement route: the board generally issues the license within 45 days after all deficiencies are resolved and required scores are received. This excludes the time needed to gather documents and clear deficiencies; the separate 30-day acknowledgment period is not total licensure time.

Cost: $450 Endorsement application and initial-license subtotal. Fingerprints and CAL-JAM/score-transfer charges are additional.

Compact: This state is not an operational PT Compact member on the commission map. A state license is required unless another lawful pathway applies.

Continuing education: 30 contact hours per 2 years. Includes 4 hours hands-on basic life support and 2 ethics/law hours. Reduced requirements may apply to first renewal.

Application route: State licensure for an applicant already licensed in another state; eligibility and application route depend on board requirements.

Notes: Listed costs describe the stated application route, not a guaranteed all-in total. Processing begins under the conditions in Details and may vary with missing documents, background checks and board review. Continuing education applies to renewal; initial-license exemptions and alternatives may apply.
