An Act relating to professional licensing; relating to temporary licenses for certain professions; and providing for an effective date.

SB 145 allows Alaska's licensing department to issue temporary licenses to professionals moving to Alaska from other states or territories with similar licensing standards, or to military personnel meeting specific criteria. It requires applicants to be licensed elsewhere with equivalent requirements, have no recent disciplinary actions, and meet criminal history standards, with licenses valid for up to 180 days (extendable once). The bill does not apply to certain regulated professions like those under AS 08.54 or AS 08.62. This directly affects healthcare workers, engineers, and other licensed professionals seeking temporary practice authorization while pursuing full state licensure.
