California BBS ASW Supervision Requirements

Supervision Requirements

The BBS requires you to log at least 1 unit of supervision in order to claim hours in a week.  A unit of supervision is:  1 hour of individual supervision or 2 hours of group supervision.  In any week where you log more than 10 hours of counseling you must log an additional unit of supervision (total of 2 units for the week).  The BBS allows you to claim a maximum of 6 hours of supervision per week. .

As an example, if you log 10 hours of counseling in a week you must log 1 unit of supervision.  This unit could be 1 hour of individual or 2 hours of group supervision.  If you log 11 hours of counseling in a week, you must log 2 units of supervision.  Two units of supervision could be:  2 hours of individual supervision; 1 hour of individual supervision and 2 hours of group supervision; or 4 hours of group supervision.

Alerts in TrackYourHours

If you fail to meet the minimum supervision requirement in a week you will receive an alert and TrackYourHours will automatically subtract the counseling hours logged that week from your valid total.

If you meet the minimum supervision requirement in a week where you log 11+ hours of counseling but fail to log an additional unit of supervision, you will receive an alert but the counseling hours above 10 will NOT be automatically subtracted from your valid total.  In this instance you need to manually subtract the counseling hours above 10.
