The bill makes conforming changes, including changes to authorize permanent licensure for practitioners who possess a master’s or doctoral degree.

Description
House File 2398 requires the Board of Educational Examiners (BOEE) to issue permanent licensure to practitioners who hold a master’s degree or doctoral degree and have been employed as a practitioner for at least 10 years. If the practitioner holds an evaluator approval endorsement, licensure must be renewed at least once every 10 years.
Background
The BOEE establishes standards for educational practitioners pursuant to authority under Iowa Code chapter 272. The BOEE sets standards for issuance of licenses, certificates, and authorizations to educational practitioners and sets standards for license renewal. Licensure renewal includes the following:
- Verification of completion of Mandatory Reporter of Child Abuse and Dependent Adult Abuse Training within three years of renewal of license.
- Verification of completion of Iowa Evaluator Training for each administration license renewal.
- Conducting a background check on all renewals including Child Abuse, Dependent Adult Abuse, and Sex Offender registries, and a review of Iowa Courts Online for any criminal convictions.
The BOEE operational costs are funded through licensure fees and 25.0% of the collected fees are transferred into the State General Fund. The licensing fees collected by the BOEE for FY 2021 were $1.9 million.
Assumptions
- An estimated 4,100 individuals with a master’s degree or doctoral degree renew or extend a license each year.
- The current licensure processing fee, as established by the BOEE, is $85 per application.
- The BOEE will collect $50 per application to conduct background checks.
- 75.0% of the fees received by the BOEE are used for operations and 25.0% of the fees are transferred into the State General Fund.
Fiscal Impact
House File 2398 is estimated to reduce licensure fees remitted to the BOEE by $110,000 and reduce deposits to the State General Fund by $40,000. The BOEE has indicated that the reduction of fees would impact its ability to cover operating expenses and may result in a reduction of staff.
