A: In Oklahoma, it's generally not automatic for a licensing board to receive updated background checks conducted for other purposes, like employment. Different agencies and employers usually conduct their own background checks for their specific needs. Unless there's a specific provision or regulation requiring the sharing of this information between agencies, new background checks wouldn't typically be sent to the licensing board.
