The Louisiana State Board of Examiners of Psychologists extended the nominations period for this year's election, wrote board Executive Director Jaime Monic to licensees on December 10. Nominations will be accepted through January 22, 2019 and opened at the regularly scheduled meeting of the LSBEP in January.
"Although the LSBEP received the self- nominations of two experienced psychologists, those individuals did not meet the statutory requirement of being licensed, specifically in Louisiana, for 5 years," wrote Monic.
Nominations should be send to the board. Candidate requirements are: (1) Citizen of the United States and resident of the state of Louisiana; (2) Have rendered service, teaching, training, or research in psychology for at least five years; (3) Shall have held a doctoral degree in psychology from a school or college as defined in La R.S. Title 37, Chapter 28 for a period of five years, and shall be licensed with the LSBEP for a period of five years; (4) No person shall be eligible to serve as a board member if he is employed by the board, has a contract with the board for services, or within the preceding twelve months of his nomination was employed by the board or had a contract with the board for services, explained the note by Monic.
