Common Traps

Drafts Are Not Current

2025 proposals remain inactive ≠ Current permanent rules control

Direct Hours Changed

Use 1,000 direct hours ≠ Do not use 1,050

Supervision Is Weekly

Minimum forty-five minutes weekly ≠ Not per twenty hours

Group Cap Myth

Current size is two-six ≠ No fifty-hour cap stated

Disclosure Statute vs OAC

Statute §1916.1 remains ≠ OAC disclosure sections revoked

Disclosure vs Consent

§1916.1 disclosure still applies ≠ Ongoing informed consent is separate

Fee Sources Differ

CareerTech lists testing charges ≠ Board separately lists $100

Supervisor CE Counting

Three supervision hours required ≠ Additional hours not stated

Section Numbers Matter

Unlicensed practice is §1911 ≠ Section 1920 covers reimbursement

Last Minute

  1. 1.Study enabling statute, Act, rules
  2. 2.Treat 2025 drafts as inactive
  3. 3.Memorize 40, 60, 80
  4. 4.Label CareerTech fees separately
  5. 5.Retake after three days
  6. 6.Base hours: 3000 / 1000 / 100
  7. 7.Supervision: forty-five minutes weekly
  8. 8.Group size: two-six candidates
  9. 9.Records: five years after termination
  10. 10.Contact changes: fourteen days
  11. 11.CE: twenty, including three ethics
  12. 12.Revoked: wait five years; reapply
