AYou don’t need either a degree or license, just go for it
BNo; they are standard across the board
CThe APA controls all licensure and degree requirements
DYes; each state has its own requirements
✓ Correct answer: D. Yes; each state has its own requirementsJust like in any other field, be it teaching, medical, or electrical, states control their own requirements and accept most school program credits and degrees, but there will be exceptions. Licensure is always a state requirement, with the state’s own individual and national board exams.<br/><br/>Although nearby states may have reciprocal exceptions this is not always the case. You can find out what your state requires through the Psychology Licensing Board in your state.
