Õ¬Äи£ÀûÉç

NC-SARA

The Õ¬Äи£ÀûÉç aims to provide degree programs and individual courses across all states by collaborating with the National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement (NC-SARA). As a member of NC-SARA, the state of Alabama facilitates this initiative, and the Õ¬Äи£ÀûÉç holds approved status as an NC-SARA institution.

Professional Licensure

The Õ¬Äи£ÀûÉç offers degree programs that may lead to professional licensure, with requirements varying by profession and state. UWA’s nursing and education programs meet Alabama’s licensure requirements; however, those seeking licensure elsewhere should consult the appropriate state licensing authority in the state where they plan to practice for accurate and up-to-date information.

The Õ¬Äи£ÀûÉç attempts to offer precise information; however, it is crucial to recognize that state laws and regulations can undergo modifications at any given moment. Students planning to seek licensure outside of Alabama should consult their respective state’s licensing board to stay informed about any alterations in requirements. Modifications in educational prerequisites could potentially affect the program’s capability to fulfill new educational criteria for licensure in the student’s home state.
