Why should you attend?

This course covers the basic perspectives of and reviews models of state-mandated administrative laws in professional licensing actions. Many people work in a professional service setting, and there is no greater mixture than in health care – physicians, nurses, physical therapists, respiratory care therapists and others.
All of them are subject to the administrative laws of the state. In addition, other professional service areas see licensed civil engineers and registered professional geologists working side-by-side, for example. Both are regulated by professional licensure, but only in most states is that true for geology.
Find out how to understand and navigate the challenges presented by differing and conflicting state laws governing the many licensed professions. Learn to identify and apply these differing and conflicting rules with respect to the specific professional. Review the common legal requirements the state imposes via an administrative legal structure. And while everyone wants to know, for example, how to become doctor, very few understand the state licensure aspect and especially the mechanisms the state imposes on how to take a doctor’s license away in administrative law in a professional licensing action.
