Arizona licensure: an out-of-state PA needs an Arizona license by endorsement. Arizona enacted the PA Licensure Compact in February 2026, but compact privileges are not available yet. We walk you through the process and it does not hold up an offer.
If you want to spend your week in the operating room instead of clinic and meet the experience requirement, apply for a confidential conversation.
