Bill Summary
Requires calculation of national average time needed to approve applications for initial credential in profession or occupation and use of average time as standard in New Jersey.
AI Summary
This bill requires professional boards in New Jersey to collect data on the average time other states take to approve initial credential applications for the professions they regulate. The boards must then calculate a national average approval time for each profession and occupation, which will become the standard timeline for approving initial credential applications in New Jersey. If a board fails to meet the calculated national average, its licensing fees will be used to hire a third-party to determine best practices for the board to implement to meet the standard. The bill also allows boards to retain all fees collected for initial credentials and renewals until they meet or exceed the national average approval time.
