Why Do You Need a License in the US?

In the US, licensure is intended to assure the public that a person is competent to practice in that profession.

Generally, professionals become licensed through training or by passing an exam. In many fields, the person seeking US licensure must obtain an advanced degree before becoming eligible for the license. Such is the case for nurses, for example, who much first graduate from nursing school before they are eligible to take the NCLEX-RN licensing exam.

People holding degrees from outside the US will need to pass all the requirements for getting a license in the US. For example, licensure may require the translation of academic records and other documents if they are not already in English.

It’s important to note that each licensed profession has an organization that monitors and represents the interests of the profession. While it is not mandatory for licensed professionals to join the national organizations, most will need to join the state organizations where they wish to practice.
