SB 1405STATE · MissouriIntroduced

SB 1405 - This act modifies the requirements for licensure as a speech pathologist or audiologist by providing for completion of a clinical fellowship under the direct supervision of a licensed speech-language pathologist in good standing, rather than under the direct supervision of a person licensed by the state of Missouri in the profession in which the applicant seeks to be licensed. This act is identical to a provision in the perfected SS/SB 895 (2026), in the truly agreed to and finally passed SS/SCS/HCS/HB 2372 (2026), in HCS/SS/SB 7 (2025), in the perfected SS/SB 61 (2025), in the perfected HCS/HB 268 (2025), SB 431 (2025), in the perfected HB 478 (2025), in HB 765 (2025), and in SCS/HB 834 (2025), and is substantially similar to a provision in HCS/SB 1019 (2026), in HCS/SS/SB 1083 (2026), in HCS/SB 1092 (2026), in the truly agreed to and finally passed HCS/SS#2/SB 1233 (2026), in HCS/HB 2300 (2026), and in SCS/HB 2591 (2026).
