State Professional Licensing Boards

State Professional Licensing Boards are government agencies responsible for regulating and overseeing specific professions within a state, such as healthcare, engineering, or legal practice. They establish standards for education, experience, and conduct to ensure professionals are qualified and uphold ethical practices. These boards also issue licenses, monitor compliance, and handle disciplinary actions when necessary. Their goal is to protect the public by maintaining high standards of professionalism and safety in licensed careers.
