The Professional Licensure Standards Board, created by Act 846 of 2007, is comprised of 15 members appointed by the State Board of Education for a three-year term. As stated in Arkansas Code 6-17-422, the Professional Licensure Standards Board shall develop minimum college level preparatory and grade point average requirements for all teachers.
With the assistance of the Department of Education and the Department of Higher Education, the Board shall review the audits of the teacher education programs in the state to determine if the programs allow graduates to become licensed.
The Board will also establish a code of ethics for administrators and teachers in educational environments for students in pre-kindergarten through grade 12. The Professional Licensure Standards Board may establish procedures for receiving, considering, and investigating complaints regarding the unethical behavior of licensed school personnel; make recommendations for enforcement; and establish an ethics subcommittee.
