Interstate Compacts in Practice: What Every Regulator Should Know
As professional mobility increases and states seek solutions for workforce access and efficiency, licensure compacts have emerged as a powerful but complex tool for regulators. This interactive workshop is designed to help state regulatory and compact staff and board members understand the fundamentals of compacts, explore their impacts on agencies, licensees, and public protection, and learn from real-world examples.
Attendees will gain clarity on how compacts differ from other mobility models like endorsement or universal recognition, what’s required to operationalize a compact, and how to prepare internal systems, staff, and stakeholders. With guidance from experts and compact representatives, the session will explore both the benefits and unanswered questions that boards must weigh when engaging in interstate compacts. Whether your state is compact-active, compact-curious, or just trying to keep up, this session will provide practical insights and tools to help you move forward confidently.
While the content of this workshop is focused on US licensure compacts, non-US based regulators who are interested in learning about this mobility model are welcome to register.
