Veterans, Military Members and Spouses
The state of Arkansas recognizes the contributions of our military service members and their spouses and veterans. Military service members or veterans may have met some certification requirements as a result of their military service or other training, knowledge and experience. Military spouses of current, active duty military service members also may have met some certification requirements related to this status. Modifications to renewal requirements may also be available for some military service members on active duty.
For more information regarding special certification provisions that military service members, military veterans or military spouses may qualify for, please see Arkansas Act 135 (previously SB78) enacted in the 9rd General Assembly.
