The answer to how long it will take is not that simple. There are several things that can influence how long it will take you. Here are the top 4:What program you\u2019ve chosenWhat schedule you haveWhich state you\u2019re inWhat progress you\u2019ve madeWe\u2019re going to be covering what the states of Kansas and California require in terms of educational hours in order to become a licensed professional.
