Successful completion of the examination for the appropriate line of authority is still required to secure a license; however, the
Department will no longer require, regulate, recommend, approve, or authorize pre-licensing education courses, including
state-equivalent exams. Anyone planning to take any license examination may still consider taking a training course. Schools approved
by the Alabama Community College System (ACCS) may be found on the ACCS website, https://www.accs.edu/. An
association providing training for its members and an employer providing training for its employees are exempt from the licensing requirements of the ACCS.
