Reciprocal approval for federal purposes shall be accorded to apprentices, apprenticeship programs and standards that are registered by the United States Department of Labor Office of Apprenticeship, or by the registration agency or council of any other state that has been recognized by the United States Department of Labor Office of Apprenticeship, if reciprocal approval is requested by the program sponsor, even if the programs and their standards depart in some respects from the criteria of ORS 660.126 (Apprenticeship standards) and from the other provisions set forth in ORS 660.002 (Declaration of policy) to 660.210 (Tort liability of committees, officers, employees and agents).
