NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on July 14, 2010, the Department of Health has issued an order.
The rule requires that a foreign educational credentialing agency use original documentation to conduct an evaluation of an applicant’s education as it pertains to the independent practice of midwifery. The Department determined to deny Petitioner’s request that the foreign educational credentialing agency not be required to use original documentation because Petitioner has not established a substantial hardship or that the underlying purposes of the statute would be achieved by granting the request.
A copy of the Order may be obtained by contacting: Anthony Jusevitch, Executive Director, Council of Licensed Midwifery, Department of Health, 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin #C06, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3285.
