Arkansas Code § 17-106-105
- (a) The State Board of Health shall require an applicant to take the Limited Scope Radiologic Technologist exam if the applicant is licensed in another state that does not offer reciprocity to Arkansas residents that is similar to reciprocity provided to out-of-state applicants in 17 CAR § 49-107.
(b) Reciprocity in another state will be considered similar to reciprocity under 17 CAR § 49-107 if the reciprocity provisions in the other state:
- (1) Provide the least restrictive path to licensure for Arkansas applicants;
- (2) Do not require Arkansas applicants to participate in the apprenticeship, education, or training required as a prerequisite to licensure of a new professional in that state, except that the state may require Arkansas applicants to participate in continuing education or training that is required for all professionals in that state to maintain the licensure;
- (3) Do not require Arkansas applicants to take a state-specific education unless required to do so under the same conditions described in 17 CAR § 49-107.
