This subcommittee reviews session proposals and develops the Annual Educational Conference content. The Entry to Practice Standards and Continuing Competence Subcommittee is responsible for evaluating and developing sessions that allow those involved in the initial licensing/registration/credentialing process to discuss the issues, trends, and challenges they face in playing the "gatekeeper" role that is fundamental to professional regulation, outside of the testing and examination realm. Topics may include defining competencies within a scope of practice, setting standards of qualification (education, training, experience), establishing equivalencies, assessing practical experience, accrediting education providers, artificial barriers to practice, labor mobility (national and international), appeals processes when registration is denied, when should the bar be raised or lowered, re-entry to practice scenarios, etc.
