Professional licensing boards' primary responsibility is to protect the public through the licensure process. Complaints are a method of informing the board about a licensed or unlicensed individual's action. All licensing boards follow a uniform complaint procedure assuring confidentiality, efficiency, and accountability.

There are two ways to file a complaint:

• A person may download the complaint form here and mail the completed form to the board office. The office accepts only written complaints.
• A person may call the board office directly at 515-281-0254 or at 1-866-227-9878 and ask for Professional Licensure. A complaint form and pre-addressed envelope stamped "confidential" will be mailed to you. The office accepts only written complaints.
