Web API: List licenses

List licenses

'List Licenses' is an API that enables developers to query and retrieve a list of occupational licenses that match a search term (which may be an occupation), within a state. You can get further details of each license using a complementary API.

About this data

License information is collected from each state by the Analyst Resource Center (ARC). States are expected to submit revisions every two years, and new information is updated on CareerOneStop every 4-6 months as new information is received. Information includes license titles, authorizing organizations, descriptions of licenses, and O*NET codes. Please note that not all states submit license information and there is no way to guarantee that each state collects all of the license information for their state. You can see License data on the CareerOneStop License Finder. For more information, visit License Finder Help.

The professional nurse teaches and directs the nursing care provider in implementing therapeutic plans of care to effectively carry out the nursing regimen and collaborates with the physician, advanced practice registered nurse, or dentist in the implementation of the medical regimen.\nLegislation: NH RSA 326-B; Administrative Rules Chapter Nur 100-800\nLicensure Requirements:\n
