Sec. 18223.

(1) The board shall promulgate rules requiring that an individual granted a license under this part, except as provided in subsection (2), shall have been granted a doctoral degree in psychology, or a doctoral degree in a closely related field, from a regionally accredited or other college, university, or institution approved by the board, which included education and training appropriate to the practice of psychology, and shall have not less than 2 years postdoctoral experience in the practice of psychology in an organized health care setting or other arrangement, as established by the board.

(2) In addition to section 16182, the board shall grant a limited license to an individual granted a master's degree in psychology from a regionally accredited college, or university, or institution approved by the board, if the individual has education, training, and experience appropriate to the practice of psychology, as established by the board. Except for duties performed as an employee of a governmental entity or of a nonprofit organization serving benevolent and charitable purposes, 2 limitations shall be placed on a license granted to an individual under this subsection. The limitations shall require supervision by a psychologist who has a license other than a limited license and shall prohibit advertising or other representation to the public which will lead the public to believe the individual is engaging in the practice of psychology. A limited license granted under this subsection shall be renewed pursuant to part 161. An individual applying for a limited license pursuant to this subsection shall have 1 year of supervised postgraduate experience in an organized health care setting or other arrangement, as established by the board. The individual shall be supervised by a psychologist who has a license other than a limited license, or if a psychologist who has a license other than a limited license is not available, by a psychologist who has at least a master's degree in psychology and at least 3 years of experience in the practice of psychology or by any other individual approved by the board. The board shall issue a temporary license to the individual for the purpose of obtaining the 1 year of postgraduate experience.
