[wactc-san] State Authorization Updates for May 2022

[Chatfield, Kathy]

WELCOME TO THE FIRST WACTC-SAN eLIST MESSAGE!

Our intent is that this eList will provide enhanced communication and resources regarding state authorization and professional licensure topics. We’ll provide occasional updates, etc. You are encouraged to send out comments and questions related to your work. These topics are vast, and we believe “it takes a village” to tackle them. Thank you in advance for your collegiality and contributions.

In addition to this eList, our team is also compiling information and resources in a Canvas shell. We have provided the *SAN MEMBER LOGIN username and password in this shell for security purposes (rather than sending through this email). If you would like to be added to the Canvas shell (State Authorization Resources for WA CTCs), please email Kathy at kchatfield at clark.edu<mailto:kchatfield at clark.edu> (please don’t reply all here) with your Canvas username or SIS ID. This is a Canvas shell hosted by SBCTC, so it should show up in your local Canvas account.
