Licensure of AOM ProfessionalsCurrently, acupuncture is recognized in 43 states and the District of Columbia. The actual requirements for licensure can vary from state to state, with the majority of states requiring the successful completion of the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) exam. If a student is interested in licensure in a state other than Washington or California, it is imperative for the student to know the licensing requirements of that particular state in order to ensure that there are no outstanding academic requirements at the time of graduation. Academic advising is available to help students who may have additional requirements to meet. For the latest licensure information please consult the NCCAOM website.
