A researcher in psychology, Mark Chae, Ph.D. served as an associate professor at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, now Rutgers School of Biomedical and Health Sciences. In addition to his professional role at the university, Mark Chae, Ph.D. was a member of the American Counseling Association (ACA), an organization that advances the growth and improvement of the counseling field.
The ACA joined with licensed professionals around the country in celebrating the passage of Georgia House Bill 395. HB 395 will allow licensed professionals to practice across state lines as a part of the Counseling Compact. With the passage of this act into law, Georgia will be the first of the 10 needed states to remove the burden of professionals to acquire multiple licenses. These compacts will potentially simplify the process of practicing in states because it removes difficulties among states because of varying licensing rules and regulations. As it stands, Georgia and Maryland have already signed into law agreements to this effect. Moreover, compact laws are pending in North Carolina, Nebraska, and Tennessee, and 15 other states are considering passing similar legislation.
