I do not agree with getting rid of the 20 hours of supervision that can count towards licensure during internship. If the board wants to stop counting this 20 hours of supervision, I recommend they reduce the total required supervision to 180, or further reduce it to 100 to reflect the requirements that the board of social work has and make those align. When we have a shortage of counselors, I'm not sure why the state would want to potentially add 20 more weeks of supervision to someone's residency. I also don't understand how we're calling this a reduction of residency requirements but also possibly adding twenty more weeks of supervision.
