Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill requires the Marriage and Family Therapy, Professional Counseling, and Social Work Examining Board to promulgate rules establishing examination requirements for certification and licensure by the board. Under current law, the board's examinations for certification and licensure must generally test an applicant's minimum competency in subjects substantially related to the practice of social work, advanced practice social work, independent social work, clinical social work, marriage and family therapy, or professional counseling, as appropriate. The bill specifies that the board's examinations for certification and licensure may include an examination that tests an applicant's knowledge of state law relating to the relevant practice.
The bill is introduced as required by s. 227.19 (5) (e), stats., in support of the objection of the Joint Committee for Review of Administrative Rules on March 3, 2016, to promulgation by the board of a portion of clearinghouse rule number 15-082.
