Modifies provisions relating to clinical fellowships required for licensure as a speech-language pathologist
Placed on Informal Calendar
Summary
The bill replaces the existing licensure statute for speech‑language pathologists with new language that requires applicants to hold an accredited master’s or doctoral degree, submit transcripts, complete a supervised clinical fellowship, and pass a board‑approved exam. Those holding an audiology clinical doctoral degree are exempt from the new fellowship requirement. The change aims to standardize training and ensure supervision by a licensed practitioner.
