Jurisprudence Resources
Resources
for the Jurisprudence Examination
The
Jurisprudence Examination is open book. When taking the exam you
will need, at a minimum:
- a copy of the Mental Health statute;
- the Board Rules for your discipline; and
- any additional resources available on the website such as the FAQs or your discipline's professional association (see Related Links for a partial listing).
You may also wish to review books such as "Confronting Malpractice" by Austin, et.al.,"Documenting Psychotherapy" by Moline, et.al., or any general reference on legal and ethical principles in psychotherapy.
This list
of resources is provided for your convenience only. The list does
not imply Board endorsement or approval.
Workshop
Information
The requirement
for completion of a jurisprudence workshop has been eliminated.
Applicants are now required to take a written mail-in jurisprudence
examination. Addiction Counselors are required by the Department
of Human Services to complete an ethics course and take the
jurisprudence examination.
