Teaching License Application Processing Overview
YOU HAVE SUBMITTED YOUR APPLICATION, WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
EMAIL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: When Board staff has received your application packet, you will be sent an email
acknowledging receipt. If you do not provide an email address, no acknowledgement will be sent. This
acknowledgement does not mean that all required documents have been received.
FINGERPRINT PACKET: As of September 1, 2017, teaching license applicants are required to undergo fingerprinting
per A.R.S. § 32-1831 and § 32-1822(A)(9). A fingerprint packet will be sent to you at the mailing address you provided
on your application. Follow the instructions in the fingerprint packet to avoid delays or having to repeat submission
of your fingerprints. Your application will remain administratively incomplete until the fingerprint processing is
complete.
ADMINISTRATIVE COMPLETENESS/DEFICIENCY LETTER: Within 30 days after sending the acknowledgement email,
staff will mail a letter to you listing the missing or incomplete information needed to complete your application.
If all the documents in both A and B of the checklist have been received, you will not receive this letter.
ADMINISTRATIVELY COMPLETE: After everything in the checklist has been received, the Board staff will
independently obtain the following:
1. National Practitioner Data Bank report
2. Federation of State Medical Board’s Practitioner Profile
At this point your application is administratively complete and moves to substantive review.
SUBSTANTIVE REVIEW: This stage of the application process is the evaluation of all answers, documents and
verifications collected and the decision whether they demonstrate you are qualified for a teaching license in Arizona.
You may be required to appear before the Board at a regularly scheduled Board meeting for a decision on your
application.
ISSUANCE OF LICENSE: If at the conclusion of the substantive review your application is approved, you will receive an
issuance letter which will provide your teaching license number, issuance date and expiration date. Please keep this
letter for your records. It will be your proof that you hold a teaching license in Arizona.
MAINTAINING YOUR LICENSE: Your initial teaching license will be valid for two years from the date it is issued. If
you intend to continue teaching, you will need to re-apply for your Teaching License at least 60 days prior to the
expiration date. CME is required to maintain your Teaching License. Please see the Teaching License FAQ on our
website at www.azdo.gov for more information regarding maintaining and re-applying for your teaching license.
Arizona Revised Statutes and Rules for osteopathic licensure can be found on our website at www.azdo.gov > Statute
and Rules. As a licensed physician you will be subject to all state and local laws and regulations pertaining to public
health and subject to all the same duties and obligations and authorized to exercise all the same rights and privileges
possessed by physicians and surgeons of other complete schools of medicine in the practice of their profession per
A.R.S. § 32-1852.
