The Behavior Analyst Board has an Emergency Rule posted on the Louisiana Register website, which addresses issues due to the lack of a grandfathering clause in Act 351 and individuals practicing behavior analysis in the community. There is insufficient time to promulgate these rules under the usual procedures noted the statement.
The Rule concerns Chapter 3 and “Application procedures and Board Fees.” Included are application and registration information and directions for the applicant for licensure as a behavior analyst. Also the applicant for certification as a state certified assistant behavior analyst is provided directions.
The Rule also outlines the registration of line technicians, noting that a Louisiana licensed behavior analyst must register with the board all line technicians functioning under their authority and direction. Also, the statement says that it is the responsibility of both the licensed behavior analyst and line technician to submit registration paperwork for each supervisory relationship.
Licensing and administration fee charts are included.
