Board Notice:
Public Hearing 5/07/10
The Board of Social Work Examiners held a Public Hearing on changes to the Administrative Code. The Board discussed the denial of application based on unethical or unlawful behaviors and the requirements for inactive licensure should the person wish to reactivate the license later. The inactive status has been available since August 1, 2009 after it was approved in the 2009 Legislative Session. The below wording was approved at this meeting.
(850-X-4 Applications For
Licensure And Certification)
850-X-4-.03(3) Denied
Applications. When the Board, after due consideration of an application and of
information pertaining thereto finds that the applicant is not eligible for
licensure or certification under any section of the law, the applicant will be
given notice of the denial, and shall be advised of the appellate procedures set
forth in Rule 850-X-4-.05. The Board may deny an application upon proof that
the person has engaged in unprofessional conduct within the last five years,
including, but not limited to:
(1) Conviction of a felony;
(2) Habituation or addiction to habit-forming drugs, either of which impairs the ability to perform his or her work;
(3) Conviction of fraud or deceit in connection with services rendered as a social worker licensed under this chapter or in establishing qualifications under this chapter;
(4) Aiding or abetting a person not licensed under this chapter who is falsely representing himself as a social worker licensed under this chapter;
(5) Failing to be relicensed and continuing to represent himself or herself as licensed after the expiration of his or her license; or
(6) Being found guilty of unprofessional conduct by the rules established by the Board of Social Work Examiners.
(850-X-7 Display And Renewal of License)
850-X-7-.03 Inactive Status – The fee for inactive status
is $25.00 every two years and is to be paid on the same date as the active
license if it were renewed.
A person not practicing social work in Alabama may select inactive status. A
person approved for inactive status is not required to obtain continuing
education contact hours while their license is inactive.
When the person in the inactive status decides to reactivate the license a minimum of 15 continuing education hours will be required. The Board will require 15 hours for each year the license is inactive up to a maximum of 45 contact hours.
To meet continuing education makeup requirements 35% must come from classroom hours.
Supervision will be required for a person at the LBSW level if the initial 24 months of required supervision have not been completed. The supervision will be due within 36 months of gaining employment in a social work setting. If the initial 24 months of required supervision were previously completed, then only 6 months of additional supervision will be required if there is a change in practice setting.
