Medical school, then a four-year psychiatry residency. Medical licensing exam: USMLE (State medical board; exam by FSMB and NBME; mD graduates pass it for a state medical license, required in every state), Medical licensing exam: COMLEX-USA (State medical board; exam by NBOME; dO graduates pass it for a state medical license), DEA registration (US Drug Enforcement Administration; needed to prescribe controlled substances), Board certification in psychiatry (American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology; most employers ask for it, or for board eligibility) and Osteopathic board certification (for DOs) (American Osteopathic Association; the DO route to board certification). Where a license is state-issued, it comes from Kansas's own board, unless a multistate compact covers it.
