(1) A licensing authority shall establish a procedure for the issuance of licensure to a person who:
(a) Has at least four (4) years of work experience in a profession or occupation in another state, district, or territory of the United States, or in the military, where a license to practice such profession or occupation was not required; and
(b) Is required to obtain a license in Idaho to be able to practice the same profession or occupation with a similar scope of practice.
(2) If a licensing authority requires an examination, it shall require the same passing score for applicants under this section as for standard licensing applicants. If a relevant licensing authority does not require an examination, no examination shall be required for applicants seeking to obtain licensure through universal work recognition.
(3) A licensing authority shall require the same licensing fee for applicants under this section as for applicants under the standard licensing process.
(4) Each applicant for universal work recognition under this section must apply to the applicable licensing authority for relevant licensure. An applicant under this section shall be subject to the laws regulating the person's practice in Idaho and the applicable licensing authority's jurisdiction.
(5) To determine whether an applicant for universal work recognition who possesses the work experience requirements established in subsection (1) of this section is otherwise qualified for licensure under Idaho law, a licensing authority shall require an applicant to complete an application, submit supporting materials, and undergo the same background checks as required of other applicants for licensure.
