Bill > SB1092

This bill modifies the length of experience required for certain social work supervisors in Missouri, reducing the minimum years of practice from five to three years for qualified advanced macro supervisors, qualified baccalaureate supervisors, and qualified clinical supervisors. These supervisors must still complete a minimum of 16 hours of supervisory training from recognized organizations like the Association of Social Work Boards or National Association of Social Workers, and meet other requirements defined by the state committee for social workers. The bill updates the definitions within section 337.600 of Missouri Revised Statutes, which describes various types of social work practices and licensing categories, such as advanced macro social workers, clinical social workers, and master social workers. By reducing the years of required practice, the bill aims to potentially make it easier for experienced social workers to become qualified supervisors while maintaining training and professional standards.
