§ 43-32-19.1. Expedited licensure - Licensing applicants licensed or registered in other

jurisdictions. 1. The board may grant a license to an applicant who is an individual licensed, certified, or registered in another jurisdiction and who files a completed application on a form and in a manner the board prescribed, submits the required fee, and submits documentation: a. Confirming graduation from an accredited program in the degree of licensure for which the individual is applying in this state; b. Confirming completion of a national examination required by the board related to competence in psychology; c. Identifying all professional licenses, certifications, or registrations previously obtained by the applicant in any jurisdiction; d. Explaining any professional or personal conduct that reasonably may be interpreted as indicating an inability to adhere to this chapter, including the code of ethical conduct adopted by the board; and e. Providing the board with a release by which the board may obtain from the applicant's current jurisdiction, confirmation of the educational degree the applicant's licensure or registration required, documentation of any disciplinary action related to the applicant's license or registration, and an explanation of all levels in the applicant's profession the current jurisdiction licenses or registers. 2. As a condition to qualify for licensure under subsection 1, the board may require the applicant pass an examination on the ethics, laws, and rules regulating the practice of psychology or industrial-organizational psychology, as appropriate to the licensure sought by the applicant. 3. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this chapter, the board may issue a license as authorized under chapter 43-51. 4. 5. The board may grant a provisional license to an expedited licensure applicant while the application is pending. The board may deny or place restrictions on a provisional license under this subsection if in another jurisdiction, within the previous five years, the applicant had a disciplinary action against the applicant's license or registration. Except as otherwise provided under this chapter, and in accordance with rules adopted by the board, the board may issue a limited practice certificate to an applicant who is licensed or registered in another jurisdiction to practice psychology or industrial-organizational psychology. A limited practice certificate issued under this subsection authorizes the practice of psychology or industrial-organizational psychology in this state for no more than thirty days in a calendar year.
