SB 368 West Virginia Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Board of Psychologists rule relating to requirements for licensure as psychologist or school psychologist

This bill authorizes West Virginia's Board of Psychologists to implement specific licensure requirements for psychologists and school psychologists. It formally approves a previously modified rule (17 CSR 03) that was reviewed and adjusted to address legislative concerns. The rule governs the qualifications and processes for obtaining or maintaining a psychology license in the state. This change directly affects individuals seeking to practice psychology or school psychology in West Virginia. The bill itself is procedural, focusing on authorizing the board's existing rule rather than creating new policy.
