NJ A2606

Enters New Jersey into the Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology Interstate Compact, allowing licensed audiologists and speech-language pathologists from member states to practice across state lines under a "compact privilege"

Requires audiologists to hold a doctoral degree (or master's degree if graduated before December 31, 2007), complete supervised clinical practicum, pass a national examination, and hold an active unencumbered license to qualify for compact privileges

Requires speech-language pathologists to hold a master's degree from an accredited program, complete supervised clinical practicum and postgraduate professional experience, pass a national examination, and maintain an active unencumbered license

Establishes the Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology Compact Commission as a joint public agency to administer the compact, with each member state appointing two delegates (one audiologist and one speech-language pathologist) from their licensing board

Supports military families by allowing active duty military personnel and their spouses to designate any state where they hold a license in good standing as their home state during active duty service
