A. As a service to both the public and those individuals licensed by the board, the board offers the opportunity for registering the licensee's area of competence, education, training, and experience within a limited list of recognized "specialties," as defined in §1705. B above. The board does not maintain a list of "special proficiencies," as defined in §1705. C above.

B. Those specialties which are currently recognized by the board are: clinical psychology, clinical neuropsychology, counseling psychology, school psychology, educational psychology, developmental psychology, experimental psychology, industrial-organizational psychology, and social psychology. The board may recognize other developed practice areas under training programs that are accredited by the American Psychological Association. Training programs may also combine two or three of the acceptable practice areas listed above.

C. The non-registration of such specialties shall not prevent licensed providers of psychological services from using the methods or dealing with the populations of any specialty, so long as the provision of such services is in accordance with the board's rules and regulations.
