The psychology board is offering a quick and easy renewal process via the online renewal system that can be accessed at the board’s home page (www.LSBEP.ORG).
Licenses should be renewed this month because they expire on July 31st. Thirty hours of continuing education is due for those with even- numbered licenses.
The new online system reduces paper work for the psychologist, and allows them to track their continuing education credits, as well as print out a record during the year whenever desired.
Executive Director Jaime Monic also noted that licensees “can report CEs at any time throughout the year and the system will total your hours.” The online system is open to renewals beginning as early as May.
Online renewals also make it easier on the board’s staff by reducing paper work and automating the record keeping for continuing education credits.
The publisher of the Times tried out the system this year. It was quick and easy. According to Ms. Jacqueline Lively, administrative assistant at the board, about 50 percent of licensees are still using the paper renewal.
Psychology board staff Ms. Jacqueline Lively (L) and Ex. Director Jaime Monic are pleased with the online renewal system. They encourage psychologists to use this easy and paperless method at www.LSBEP.ORG.
