How is the reactivation fee determined?

The reactivation fee is determined based on a pro-rated fee according to LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) regulations. This method allows the fee to be aligned with the timeframe and circumstances surrounding the reactivation of a counseling license, ensuring that individuals are charged fairly relative to the length of time their license has been inactive.

Pro-rating the fee considers various factors, such as how long the license has been expired or inactive, thus creating a more tailored approach that reflects the actual status of the professional’s licensing. This practice ensures that renewal processes are equitable, rather than imposing a uniform fee that may not accurately represent the time elapsed since the last licensure period. By deriving the fee in this manner, the Oklahoma licensing board can also reinforce adherence to ongoing professional standards and responsibilities among counselors.
