Online verification of licenses and registrations are now available. Instructions for using this system can be downloaded here. Office 2007 users can find instructions tailored to them availble here.
Licensing/Registrant Data
All of our licensing/registration data has been exported to an Excel file and is available for your use in verifying licenses/registrations. There are six different downloads available--one for each licensing/registrant group. They are in a zip file so you will need a program to unzip the download in order to use it. The files available include:
The information provided on this site is the same information provided through other means of verification and is true and complete to the best of our knowledge. It is the decision of the individual program or organization to determine if the information meets standards for which it is responsible. The Board believes that this site is appropriate for verification information, but is not responsible for determining appropriateness of the information compared to standards of any given organization or program.
