<p class="MsoNormal">Please find attached the following <b>Notice of Proposed Rulemaking Hearing</b> and Statement of Need and Fiscal Impact from the Board of Psychology.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:12.0pt"><b><u>Rule Caption</u>: Resident supervision contract requirements; post-degree supervised work experience for psychology licensure.<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:6.0pt"><u>Rule Summary</u>: The proposed amendment adds a requirement that post-degree supervised work experience completed in Oregon on or after August 1, 2018 must be in a Board-approved resident supervision contract
in order for the experience to qualify towards the one year of post-doctoral supervised work experience required for licensure. This means that work completed at an Oregon “exempt site” outside of a residency contract will no longer count towards the experience
requirement for licensure. Post-doctoral supervised work experience completed prior to August 1, 2018 under exemption from ORS 675.010 to 675.150 but not in a Board approved Resident Supervision Contract may qualify towards the one year of post-doctoral supervised
work experience required for licensure. The amendment requires that Record of Supervised Hours and Final Resident Evaluation report be provided to the Board within 30 days of the conclusion or termination of the contract. It also clarifies the title usage
in exempt sites and the Board’s authority to approve or reject residency contracts.<o:p></o:p></p>
