First, News and Community:
Our website and Official Directory are a wealth of information about chiropractic licensure, regulation, specific jurisdictional requirements, affiliated organizations and more.
We maintain more than 800 web pages. If the information you need isn’t on our site, odds are, we’ve got a link to wherever it is.
*click*
We have a few services that are specific to our members.
POWERPOLLS: Any board can request new or research existing PowerPolls which are surveys of member boards. If you want to know how other licensing boards address a certain issue, PowerPolls are a great way to find out.
NEWS ALERTS: FCLB keeps an eye on media coverage of chiropractors. If we see one of your licensees in the news, we’ll let you know. That way, you’re prepared if the reporters start calling.
UPDATES: We stay in contact with all of the CCEs, the ACA, the ICA, and any other alphabet organizations we meet. If we or they have any information to share, you’ll find it in your inbox.
RECOGNITION: Regulators are hidden heroes in public protection. Every once in awhile, we like to shine a spotlight on you. If you know of a board or individual who deserves some applause, let us know.
Finally, we like to simplify things for current and future licensees. On our website is a central hub of links to all of our member boards, their rules and regs, and their application materials.
Additionally, our student outreach program reminds future licensees that they need to think ahead when it comes to applying for a license

CIN-BAD stands for Chiropractic Information Network, Board Action Databank.
*click*
This secure, online databank is a growing collection of chiropractic licensure data from our member boards and is free for those members to access.
The Board Action Databank of information is a COMPLETE record of board actions. If a board has taken action against a doctor, there is a record of it in this database.
Maintaining this data and making it accessible to member boards centralizes licensure information, making sure that predatory licensees don’t simply cross borders to prey on new patients. It also speeds up mobility for the rest of the chiropractors with quick licensure verification.
Additionally, boards may choose to have CIN-BAD report to the Federal Databank (formerly HIPDB) on their behalf.

The Certified Chiropractic Clinical Assistant program is our newest service.

This program creates uniforms standard of education and testing for chiropractic assistants, then nationally certifies those assistants who voluntarily meet those standards.
Patient safety is the impetus behind this program. No one benefits from having untrained individuals assisting with therapies.
For FCLB boards who want to regulate CAs but don’t have the resources to develop or run a program, CCCA offers a cost-effective avenue.

IN-DEPTH ASSESSMENT PROCESS
PACE, Providers of Approved Continuing Education, is a centralized continuing education review program.
It streamlines the CE submission and review process by allowing boards to delegate course review to a central body, thus reducing the duplication of work among boards.
*click*
The review is conducted by a team educators and former regulators. The final authority, however, rests with the FCLB Board of Directors.
For DCs practicing in jurisdictions that accept PACE, we have a central course-search database that makes it easy to find courses accepted in multiple jurisdictions.
