What is the maximum number of candidates for licensure that a supervisor may oversee at one time according to regulations effective October 1, 2015?

The regulations effective October 1, 2015, specify that a supervisor may oversee a maximum of three candidates for licensure at one time. This limitation is designed to ensure that each candidate receives adequate attention and support during their training and development. Supervising more than three candidates could hinder the effectiveness of the oversight, as the supervisor may not be able to provide the necessary guidance, feedback, and mentorship that each candidate requires to succeed. By maintaining a smaller cohort, the quality of supervision and the learning experience for each candidate can be significantly enhanced. This structure promotes better outcomes for candidates as they work toward licensure.
