Projects

For this project, my colleagues and I at the Knee Center collected data on 50 professions for this first annual snapshot of the Center's occupational licensing database. We began the process in May 2022 and finished in May 2023. We relied only on information directly from state government sources, as data from others like industry groups is frequently out of date. Requirements are found in a variety of locations, including state laws, administrative codes, agency communications, and licensing board websites. The authority for licensing boards is created in statute, yet requirements can be found in statute, administrative code, or delegated to licensing boards directly.
