Along with the application form, you'll need to submit supporting documents such as transcripts, professional references, and verification of your current state license. Make sure to keep copies of all documents for your records.

As part of the licensing process, you'll be required to pay an application fee. The fee structure may change, so visit the NSBESPA website [1] to find the most up-to-date information on fees and accepted payment methods. Payments are typically made online through a secure portal. Keep a record of your payment receipt. Note: Do not include any fees directly to TLC Travel Staff or any other specific staffing agency, as the licensing process is handled solely by the licensing body.

Obtaining an endorsement license as a Speech Therapist Assistant in Nevada requires a criminal background check. Follow the instructions provided on the NSBESPA website [1] to initiate the background check process.
