A work queue in simple terms is a mechanism to segment the incoming tasks (i.e. license applications, Name change requests, complaints, etc.) for board staff in the office. For example, the Board may choose to create different work queues for RN, LPN, APRN license applications, furthermore there could be separate work queues for initial licensure by exam or initial licensure by endorsement applications etc. Board staff may have their own work queue (My Work Queue) and could pick up applications from that queue to process.
