Okla. Stat. tit. 59, § 59-4100.1: Legislative findings

The Legislature finds that military service members after

separating from military service are frequently delayed in getting

post-military employment even though the service member may have

applicable military education, training, and experience which could

qualify for an occupational license or certification, or which could

provide academic credit toward college, university or technical

degree requirements. The Legislature finds it is advantageous to

the state to create occupational and educational opportunities for

post-military service members who are honorably discharged and

spouses of active-duty service members who must leave work in

another state to accompany their service member on transfer and

assignment for military duty in this state. The Legislature

additionally finds that the spouse of an active-duty service member

assigned for duty in this state who possesses a valid professional

license or certification with current experience in another state

should be allowed to apply for the same professional license or

certification in this state and such application should be expedited

for better employment opportunities and based upon the person having

substantially equivalent education, training and experience for

licensure in this state.
