A bill for an act relating to continuing education requirements for licensed professions.

HB 546 amends Iowa's continuing education requirements for licensed professionals, ensuring these requirements directly relate to their specific profession. It prohibits licensing boards from imposing unrelated continuing education credits and exempts practitioners with at least 10 years of experience and a master’s or doctoral degree (unless they hold an evaluator endorsement requiring renewal every decade). The bill also mandates the Iowa Supreme Court to revise attorney continuing education rules to exclude unrelated requirements. This applies broadly to all licensed professions in Iowa, including those regulated by the board of education or the Supreme Court.
