Professional Licensure and Certification Disclosures
York Technical College offers programs that may prepare students to pursue professional licensure or certification. Educational requirements vary by state and jurisdiction. Before enrolling, students should review the determination for the state or jurisdiction where they intend to work and contact the appropriate licensing agency for the most current requirements.
Important: A determination that a program meets educational requirements does not guarantee licensure or certification. Applicants may also need to satisfy examinations, background checks, supervised experience, fees, applications, or other requirements established by the licensing authority.
