SB749,1,3
1
An Act
to amend
440.88 (4) of the statutes;
relating to:
substance abuse
2
counselor-in-training, clinical supervisor-in-training, and prevention
3
specialist-in-training certifications.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Current law provides for the certification of individuals by the Department of Safety and Professional Services as substance abuse counselors, clinical supervisors, or prevention specialists. Individuals may also be certified as any of the aforementioned “in training.” As with other credentials, the renewal date for certifications, including in-training certifications, is a fixed date. In-training certifications may only be renewed twice after initial certification.
This bill provides that the renewal date for an in-training certification is two years from the date the certification is granted instead of the fixed date under current law.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
SB749,1
4

6

7
