What is reciprocity?

Reciprocity (also called endorsement or transfer) allows you to use your Physical Therapist Assistant License (PTA) certification from one state to practice in another without completely starting over. Requirements vary — some states accept direct transfers, while others require additional paperwork, fees, or exams.
