AI Summary

  • Idaho would join the Dietitian Licensure Compact, allowing licensed dietitians to practice across member states without obtaining separate licenses in each state through a "compact privilege" system

  • Licensees must hold an unencumbered license in their home state, meet educational requirements (master's or doctoral degree from an accredited program), complete at least 1,000 hours of supervised practice, and pass the CDR registration examination

  • Creates the Dietitian Licensure Compact Commission as a joint government agency with one delegate per member state, empowered to establish rules, collect fees, maintain a shared data system, and take enforcement actions

  • The compact becomes effective when enacted by seven states; member states must implement FBI fingerprint-based criminal background checks for applicants and report adverse actions against licensees to the shared data system

  • Declares an emergency with an effective date of July 1, 2025; includes provisions supporting military members and spouses in maintaining licensure when relocating between member states
