Section 31-12A-1 Legislative findings. The Legislature recognizes the importance of active
military personnel, veterans, and military facilities to the well-being, safety, and economic
development of the State of Alabama. The Legislature further recognizes and finds that discharged
service members leave the military with documented training and experience that can prepare
them for civilian employment; however, this documentation is not always able to result in
qualifying them for licenses required for their occupation or providing them with academic
credit. By providing for expedited licensure and increased academic credit recognition for
a service member's military training and experience, the state can help promote the employment
of veterans. (Act 2013-350, p. 1255, §1.)...
