AI Summary

This bill establishes an alternative method of examining competency (AMEC) for granting provisional social worker licenses. Under AMEC, applicants who have taken the licensed certified social worker examination at least twice and failed within 15 points of passing can be granted a provisional license valid for up to one year. During this provisional period, the licensee must complete professional development, supervisory, and educational requirements and maintain a professional portfolio. Upon successful completion of the provisional license requirements, the licensee will be exempt from the standard licensing process and granted a full license.
