IDFPR Announces Additional License Types on New Online Licensing System
Agency Issues the Most New Professional Licenses in a Single Year in 2024
CHICAGO – The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) announced today that four additional professions are now available for licensure via the Department’s new online licensing system, CORE (the Comprehensive Online Regulatory Environment). Introduced by IDFPR on October 30, 2024, the Department will transition all licensing procedures to CORE in a phased implementation process over the next two years. The four license types are:
- Licensed Behavior Analyst (LBA)
- Licensed Assistant Behavior Analyst (LABA)
- Behavior Analyst Continuing Education Sponsor
- Licensed Certified Professional Midwife
“Today’s announcement is yet another significant milestone achieved by the Pritzker Administration in the IDFPR success story,” said IDFPR Secretary Mario Treto, Jr. “My team will continue its hard work in ensuring all professions and services are successfully transitioned to CORE, which will help more professionals work in Illinois and provide their services to people across the state.”
In addition to CORE’s implementation, IDFPR also rebuilt and improved existing antiquated licensing processes in 2024.
