HCS SCS SB 100 -- SPEECH PATHOLOGY AND AUDIOLOGY

This bill requires that a person who is applying for licensure by
the State Board of Registration for the Healing Arts as a
speech-language pathology assistant have a bachelor's degree in
the field of speech-language pathology from an institution
approved by a regional accrediting body recognized by the United
States Department of Education.  Persons with audiology clinical
doctoral degrees are exempt from the current fellowship
requirements in order to become licensed.

The Missouri Academy of Audiology and the Missouri
Speech-Language-Hearing Association must recommend to the state
board qualified persons to fill vacancies on the Advisory
Commission for Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists.
