Colorado Professional-Licensing Support for Military Families and Veterans

Colorado DPO provides military-related licensing support across more than 60 professions. A qualifying military spouse, dependent or Gold Star spouse of military personnel stationed in Colorado may apply for a fee-free temporary credential using an active out-of-state credential in good standing and required military documents. The credential lasts six years and may be renewed for another six years when applicable Colorado orders continue. Separate renewal and reinstatement programs have their own rules; this is not a universal fee waiver or college-education benefit.
