On May 27, 2022, Governor Pritzker signed HB4769, the Behavior Analyst Licensing Act. The bill had an immediate effective date; however, this does not mean BCBAs can now go get a license. The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) now has to create and pass administrative rules to implement the Act before they will begin licensing; IDFPR has 20 months to do finish this process. ILABA will work with IDFPR through this process.
