Professionals often fall under the supervision of a state commission or review board.  Architects, auctioneers, real estate brokers, accountants, doctors, nurses, lawyers, dentists, appraisers, home inspectors, and barbers – yes, barbers – are just a few of the professions that have to answer to a state agency’s licensing board.

Some find that they have to answer to more than one such entity.  For example, a Nurse Practitioner in this state has to be approved to practice by the Board of Nursing and the Medical Board.
