Mobility & Licensure

The following is a rough listing of the practical impact of being board certified through ABPP as it relates to mobility and licensure in the U.S. Laws and rules change, and you are advised to check with the licensing board for additional information. “Reciprocity” may still require some aspects of documentation, but typically is full or “near-full” reciprocity. “Waiver of Exam” typically represents waiver of the EPPP; you may still need to take a state jurisprudence examination. This list may change at anytime as Jurisdictions make changes without notice.
