Once you have familiarized yourself with the requirements, it is time to delve into the endorsement license application process. The OSBMLS oversees the licensing process and provides detailed instructions on their official website. We highly recommend referring to their comprehensive guide, which can be found at [OSBMLS-Endorsement-Guide].
