A. An applicant who meets the requirements for licensure pursuant to the provisions of the Licensed Behavioral Practitioner Act, has paid the required license fees, and has otherwise complied with the provisions of the Licensed Behavioral Practitioner Act shall be licensed by the State Board of Behavioral Health Licensure. B. Each initial license issued pursuant to the Licensed Behavioral Practitioner Act shall expire twenty-four (24) months from the date of issuance unless revoked. A license may be renewed upon application and payment of fees. The application for renewal shall be accompanied by evidence satisfactory to the Board that the licensed behavioral practitioner has completed relevant professional or continued educational experience during the previous twenty-four (24) months. Failure to renew a license shall result in forfeiture of the rights and privileges granted by the license. A person whose license has expired may make application within one (1) year following the expiration in writing to the Board requesting reinstatement in a manner prescribed by the Board and payment of the fees required by the provisions of Licensed Behavioral Practitioner Act. The license of a person whose license has expired for more than one (1) year shall not be reinstated. A person may apply for a new license as provided in Section 1935 of this title. C. A licensed behavioral practitioner whose license is current and in good standing, who wishes to retire the license, may do so by informing the Board in writing and returning the license to the Board. A license so retired shall not be reinstated but retirement of the license shall preclude a person from applying for a new license at a future date.
