Utah's Division of Professional Licensing, working with the Department of Veterans and Military Affairs, would be required to identify which skills, training, credentials, and education that people gain in the military are equivalent to what's needed for state occupational licenses, and to publish that information in a public resource on its website. When a veteran or current service member applies for a professional license but doesn't fully meet the standard training or education requirements, the division would be required to give them credit for relevant military experience that meets this equivalency standard. The bill also directs the Department of Veterans and Military Affairs to consult with the division on this process, and requires the division to report to a legislative committee by November 2028 on how many veterans and service members have received licenses this way, with that reporting requirement expiring in January 2029.
