RECIPROCITY INTO DELAWARE: Addiction
professionals certified by an IC&RC member board who relocate to Delaware may
transfer their credential to DCB using the reciprocity process. No additional
requirements will have to be met by the certified professional using this
process to transfer their credential to Delaware. To begin the reciprocity
process, certified addiction professionals must contact their current
credentialing board and request a reciprocity application. Upon completion of
the reciprocity application by both the certified addiction professional and the
current credentialing board and upon receipt of this information by DCB, DCB
will then issue the certified addiction professional the equivalent credential
offered by DCB.
RECIPROCITY OUT OF DELAWARE: Addiction
professionals certified by DCB who relocate to another state, country, or nation
may transfer their credential to the new jurisdiction using the reciprocity
process only if the new jurisdiction is an IC&RC member board. Reciprocity to a
non-IC&RC member board is not permitted. Additional requirements may be imposed
upon the certified addiction professional depending on the laws and regulations
governing the practice of addiction related services in the new jurisdiction.
Therefore, certified addiction professionals are strongly encouraged to contact
the IC&RC member board in the new jurisdiction to determine if any additional
requirements must be met. To begin the reciprocity process, certified addiction
professionals must contact DCB and request a reciprocity application. Upon
completion of the reciprocity application by both the certified addiction
professional and DCB and upon receipt of this information by the certification
board in the new jurisdiction, that board will then issue the certified
addiction professional the equivalent credential offered unless laws or
regulations governing the practice of addiction related services in the new
jurisdiction must first be met.
