Council on Licensure, Enforcement and Regulation (CLEAR)

Government AdministrationKentucky, United States11-50 Employees

CLEAR, the Council on Licensure, Enforcement and Regulation, operates within government administration as a resource for entities and individuals involved in licensure, non-voluntary certification, or registration across regulated occupations and professions. Having been established more than three decades ago, it functions as a dynamic forum aimed at improving the quality and understanding of regulation to bolster public protection, drawing members from government, the private sector, and other interested groups. The organization is headquartered in Nicholasville, Kentucky, and it convenes conferences, provides services, and publishes materials to support ongoing international dialogue on licensure and regulation.

Its membership spans testing professionals, regulatory boards and staff, regulatory agency administrators, researchers, and academics, all pursuing higher standards in regulation and public protection. CLEAR positions itself as an international network that enables networking, consultation, and peer learning among a broad range of regulatory stakeholders. A notable recent development is the 2023 launch of the CLEAR Regulatory Network, a mobile-friendly online community organized into seven groups focusing on policy and legal issues, inspections, new committee members, regulatory innovation, vendors, executive leadership, and diversity, equity, and inclusion.
