This bill updates the Delaware Code relating to the Delaware Board of Examiners of Psychologists. Section 1 ensures that the internship requirement for applicants for psychological assistant registration is equivalent to the internship required of applicants for psychologist registration. This will prevent situations in which an applicant who qualifies for registration as a psychological assistant is then not qualified for registration as a psychologist as he or she did not complete an adequate internship. Section 2 of this bill adds a provision to the statute that enables the Board to discipline a psychologist or psychological assistant who has violated the Board’s statute or regulations in a way that is not a violation of the American Psychological Association’s code of ethics or conviction of a crime substantially related to the practice of psychology. Section 3 of this bill removes language that limits the Board’s ability to fine licensees who are subject to discipline to only those licensees whose licenses are suspended or revoked by the Board.

An Act To Amend Title 24 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Delaware Board Of Examiners Of Psychologists.
