The Multi-State Nurse Licensing Compact

The Kansas Nursing Board has all of the info you need to get on your way to obtaining the state license. One piece of exciting news is that Kansas joined the Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) recently! Under the NLC, nurses can practice in other NLC states, without having to obtain additional state licenses.
