An applicant for licensure as a behavior analyst must meet standards adopted by the state board of psychologist examiners, including meeting graduate level education and supervised experience requirements and passing a national examination. The state board of psychologist examiners shall adopt standards consistent with the standards set by a nationally recognized behavior analyst certification board, except that the number of hours required for supervised experience must be at least one thousand five hundred hours of supervised work experience or independent fieldwork, university practicum or intensive university practicum. The standards adopted for supervised experience must also be consistent with the standards set by a nationally recognized behavior analyst certification board. If the state board of psychologist examiners does not agree with a standard set by a nationally recognized behavior analyst certification board, the state board may adopt an alternate standard.
