An Act relating to an audiology and speech-language interstate compact; relating to the practice of audiology and the practice of speech-language pathology; and providing for an effective date.

This bill establishes an interstate compact to regulate the practice of audiology and speech-language pathology across participating states. It updates licensing requirements for audiologists and speech-language pathologists in Alaska, ensuring they hold accredited degrees and professional certifications from recognized organizations. The legislation also mandates fingerprinting and national criminal history checks for all applicants and adds a new fee category for compact privileges, allowing licensed professionals to practice in other member states without obtaining a separate local license.
