In the Event of a Statewide Emergency

Disclaimer: Law, rules and regulations, not Guidelines, specify the requirements for practice and violating them constitutes professional misconduct. Not adhering to this Guideline may be interpreted as professional misconduct only if the conduct also violates pertinent law, rules and regulations.

In the event of a statewide emergency that impacts the licensed professions, the Office of the Professions will provide important information through our Web site, our automated phone system (518-474-3817), and/or our regional offices. This information will include emergency provisions for professional practice as well as updates on scheduled events and services (licensing examinations, professional discipline proceedings, examination reviews, etc.)
