2. May enter into any reciprocity agreement, including, without limitation, the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement, for the purpose of authorizing a postsecondary educational institution that is located in another state or territory of the United States to provide distance education to residents of this State if the requirements contained in the agreement for authorizing a postsecondary educational institution that is located in another state or territory of the United States to provide distance education to residents of this State are substantially similar to the requirements for licensure of a postsecondary educational institution by the Commission on Postsecondary Education pursuant to NRS 394.383 to 394.560, inclusive.
