    HopeRules replied to newgradui's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    newgradui, I like your attitude! So you made a mistake. Who hasn't? 98% of the students in my class drank while eating out with the class and drove home afterward. Then, they have the audacity to...

    HopeRules replied to ericninetwo's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    HopeRules replied to ericninetwo's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I would look at other states. California is know to be the most difficult. However, the first of the year (2015) AB Bonta (2396) was passed. It prohibits the board from denying an applicant based...

    HopeRules replied to RNmoms's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    First, it is a tough job market. I know in California it *is* legal to ask about any past criminal convictions. If it has been expunged/dismissed then you can legally answer no to the question....
