What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, no person may engage in the practice of psychology without

being licensed as a psychologist by the Psychology Examining Board. This bill

requires the board to issue an interim psychologist license to an applicant who

satisfies all of the requirements for a psychologist license, other than an experience

requirement. An interim license is valid for two years or until the individual obtains

a permanent license, subject to a hardship exemption prescribed by the board by rule

that could allow renewals beyond two years.
