§ 3268. Licensing without examination

The board may waive the examination requirement if the applicant is a clinical mental health counselor regulated under the laws of another jurisdiction, who is in good standing to practice clinical mental health counseling in that jurisdiction, and, in the opinion of the board, the standards and qualifications required for regulation of clinical mental health counseling in that jurisdiction are substantially equivalent to those required by this chapter. The board may adopt by rule criteria for licensing clinical mental health counselors who have five years' licensed or certified practice experience in another jurisdiction of the United States or Canada.
