OUT-OF-STATE RECIPROCITY AND PROFESSIONAL LICENSURE DISCLOSURE

Effective July 2018, St. Johns River State College has been approved by Florida to participate in National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements. NC-SARA is a voluntary, regional approach to state oversight of postsecondary distance education. The reciprocity agreements allow for the open delivery of academic credit-earning activities in participating states, including academic field experiences such as internships or practicums.

SJR State offers a variety of programs designed to prepare students for employment in various occupations. Programs leading to licensure meet the educational requirements of the state of Florida. Completion of these programs may meet licensure requirements for same or similar occupations in states other than Florida; however, individual state’s requirements vary. The following is a list of SJR State programs that lead to licensure:

  • Florida Corrections Officer Academy, C.C. - Florida only
  • Early Childhood Education, B.S. - Florida; all other states not determined.

Any state not listed as accepting of a program’s licensure may have different educational requirements from Florida.

If you live in any state other than Florida and are a prospective student interested in one of these programs, please consult NC-SARA’s Professional Licensure Directory at nc-sara.org/resources/professional-licensure and contact the appropriate licensing agency in your state or the state where you intend to work to get its state licensure requirements before starting a program. SJR State makes every effort to ensure licensure information is current and is continuing to investigate out-of-state licensure requirements; however, professional licensure regulations vary by state and are frequently revised. Please contact the director of your program of interest at SJR State if you need additional guidance on identifying licensure requirements in your state.
