<u><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Rule Summary</span></u><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">: Modifies the core and clinical coursework content areas and adds a requirement for a minimum
number of graded courses to the clinical psychology educational requirements for licensure as a psychologist for applicants who possess a doctoral degree from a regionally accredited, provincially chartered, or foreign program. Also allows these and psychologist
associate applicants to complete limited coursework outside of their degree-granting program if the applicant’s degree-granting program was deficient in required content areas. Modifies the requirements for licensure by endorsement and no longer requires applicants
who have maintained an active psychologist license for 15 years or more to fulfill the EPPP exam requirement. Also clarifies the licensure by endorsement and standard application procedures. Establishes when a candidate for licensure must retake the jurisprudence
exam. Clarifies the criteria used to reject a complaint filed with the Board.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
