			 psychological technician may conduct initial screening interviews which may
			 lead to referrals for more extensive evaluation or treatment. A psychological
			 technician may also administer adjective checklists, behavior rating scales,
			 and other rating devices which may be completed by a variety of professional
			 and non-professional observers.
(c)
			 Psychoeducational interventions: Psychological technicians may provide didactic
			 psychoeducational services to individuals or groups. The purpose of such groups
			 is to disseminate information and educate clients.

			 the laws that govern the practice of psychology and the ethics that guide the
			 practice are understood and followed. The scope of mandated supervision may
			 include enhancement and refinement of previously learned skills, but shall not

Current through Register Vol. 42, No. 9, June 28, 2024
(1) The
			 written examination includes the Examination for the Professional Practice in
			 Psychology (EPPP) developed by the Association of State and Provincial
			 Psychology Boards. This examination is intended to provide one measure of
			 professional competence in psychology of a candidate. The examination provides
			 an index of the candidate's knowledge by measuring the major fields of
			 psychology at a level that all candidates, regardless of their specialties,
			 might be expected to reach. This examination is intended to assist the Board in
			 its function of protecting the public by identifying the minimum level of
			 competency for professional practice. Thus, instead of being designed to
			 identify the most competent members of the profession, the examination has the
			 purpose of protecting the public by identifying those individuals unqualified
			 for the professional practice of psychology.
(a) The Alabama Board of Examiners in
			 Psychology determines a pass or fail for each candidate based upon the
			 Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards recommended passing score
			 for psychologists.
(b) The passing
			 score for psychological technicians shall be based upon the Association of
			 State and Provincial Psychology Boards scaled score of 400 for computer-based
			 administrations or 60% of the items correct for paper and pencil
			 administrations.

Current through Register Vol. 42, No. 9, June 28, 2024
The American Psychological Association (APA) describes
				Continuing Professional Education (CPE) in psychology as an ongoing process
				consisting of formal learning activities that are relevant to psychological
				practice, education, and science, and that also enable psychology professionals
				to keep pace with the most current scientific evidence regarding assessment,
				intervention and education as well as important legal, statutory or regulatory
				issues, and that also allow psychology professionals to maintain, develop, and
				increase competencies in order to improve services to the public and enhance
				contributions to the profession.
(1)
			 Programs offered by agencies which have been approved to provide continuing
			 education activities by the APA qualify for continuing education credit,
			 including, but not limited to home, independent, distance, book-based, or
			 online study programs approved by the APA.
(2) Programs, other than home, independent,
			 distance, book-based, or online study programs, will be accepted for credit if,
			 in the opinion of the Board, the topic of the program clearly reflects the
			 interface with the professional or scientific applications of psychology and
			 provide the equivalent of APA-defined credit. Typically, such programs are
			 offered or sponsored by other professional organizations, which are directly
			 related to the practice of psychology (e.g., AMA, NASW, NIMH) and provide
			 formal documentation of continuing education activity. The applicant will
			 provide to the Board documentation that the program met all of the following
			 criteria:
(i) A clear statement of the
			 relevance of the program to the science or profession of psychology.
(ii) Objectives of the program are clearly
			 and specifically stated.
(iii)
			 Programs are publicized in brochures which identify faculty and describe the
			 educational objectives.
(iv) Course
			 leaders, teachers, or faculty are professionally qualified people who have
			 demonstrated their ability, either by advanced degrees or publications in
			 professional journals.
(v)
			 Provision of a certificate of continuing education that supports participation
			 in the activity for the hours indicated.

Current through Register Vol. 42, No. 9, June 28, 2024
(a)
			 Licensees are required to submit an annual renewal fee to the Board after the
			 initial year of licensure. License renewal consists of payment of the annual
			 renewal fee, payment of the annual continuing education fee and demonstration
			 of fulfillment of the annual continuing education requirement. As a courtesy, a
			 renewal notice will be mailed to the licensee's address of record on August15
			 of each year with payment due by October 15. Failure to receive a renewal
			 notice from the Board will not relieve the licensee from the renewal
			 requirement. Renewal fees will not be accepted prior to the mailing of the
			 renewal notifications. October 15 is the official renewal date. Checks drawn on
			 insufficient funds or otherwise invalid must be replaced by a cashier's check
			 or money order.
(b) Failure to
			 comply with all requirements for renewal by October 15 shall result in a lapsed
			 license. Failure to renew a license prior to October 15 will not deprive the
			 licensee of the right to renew, but prohibits that individual from continuing
			 to practice unless working in an exempt setting. A licensee may have his or her
			 lapsed license reinstated upon satisfaction of the following:
(1) Payment of annual fees in arrears. (See
			 Appendix I, Fee Schedule)
(2)
			 Payment of late penalty/penalties. Any renewal fee paid after October 15 will
			 be increased by $20.00 for each month or fraction thereof that the payment is
			 late.
(3) Submission of proof of
			 compliance with continuing education requirements.
(4) If a psychologist or psychological
			 technician is alleged to have violated any prohibition on professional conduct
			 as referenced in the law, the Board, upon a hearing and proof of the violation,
			 may deny reinstatement of the license or prohibit the psychologist or
			 psychological technician from applying for reinstatement of
			 licensure.
(5) A person who fails
			 to renew a lapsed license within a period of two years after the date of its
			 expiration is not eligible for reinstatement. The license may not be restored
			 or reissued. The individual will be required to submit a new application for
			 licensure and meet the statutory requirements in existence at time of
			 re-application.

Current through Register Vol. 42, No. 9, June 28, 2024
(1) A
			 licensee may request that the Board designate his or her license status as
			 inactive at any time before the annual date of renewal (October 15) by
			 submitting the Inactive Status Application Form and payment of an annual
			 inactive status fee (See Appendix I, Fee Schedule). Granting inactive status to
			 a licensee revokes all privileges associated with licensure under the law until
			 reactivation is requested by the licensee. Any individual whose license is on
			 inactive status shall not practice psychology or use the title "Licensed
			 Psychologist" or "Licensed Psychological Technician in the State of Alabama.
			 Any person violating this rule shall be considered practicing without a license
			 and shall be subject to disciplinary action by the Board. Inactive status does
			 not negate the jurisdiction of the Board over the actions of a licensee during
			 any period of active licensure.
(2)
			 A licensee who has been granted inactive status must submit a Continuation of
			 Inactive Status Form by the date of renewal (October 15) each year, or the
			 license shall lapse. Annual notices will be mailed to the licensee's address of
			 record on August 15 of each year with responses due by October 15.
(3) A licensee may have his or her Inactive
			 license reinstated to Active status by satisfying the following criteria:
(a) Submission of the Reinstatement of Active
			 Status Form.
(b) Payment of the
			 current annual renewal and continuing education fees. (See Appendix I, Fee
			 Schedule)

Current through Register Vol. 42, No. 9, June 28, 2024
(1)
			 Licensure should not be used, either explicitly or implicitly, as a claim or
			 promise or guarantee of successful service. A licensed psychologist or licensed
			 psychological technician is to display the license certificate in an
			 appropriate manner within an office area. The license should be reproduced only
			 when necessary to complete a file or official records and not for display
			 purposes or for announcement of services. On letterheads, professional cards,
			 and other displays, the licensees should use the designation "Licensed
			 Psychologist" or "Licensed Psychological Technician," as appropriate. It is
			 appropriate for the licensee to be introduced to an audience as "licensed by
			 the State Board of Examiners."
(2)
			 Specialty titles, such as "Clinical Psychologist," etc., may be used by
			 licensed psychologists, instead of the title "Licensed Psychologist" if the
			 title provides an accurate description of training and services. Such titles,
			 if used, must be consistent with one's level of licensure and competency and
			 should not be used in combination with the term "Licensed Psychologist" since
			 the Alabama license is generic. Specialty titles for licensed psychological
			 technicians are not applicable.
(3)
			 A psychological technician may not use the title "psychologist" or hold himself
			 or herself out to the public or knowingly allow himself or herself to be held
			 out to the public as a psychologist. A licensed psychological technician shall
			 not practice or present himself or herself outside the area of competence as
			 approved by the board based upon the examination and review of the
			 qualifications, training, and experience of the individual.
(4) When licensees announce or advertise
			 psychological services to the public under the name of a professional
			 corporation, association, group, clinic, etc., the name of at least one
			 licensed psychologist or psychological technician must appear in conjunction
			 with the name of the professional corporation, association, group, clinic,
			 etc.
