Atcb

Description

There are two options for attaining the ATCS certification and each has different requirements for experience as a supervisor. The requirement for supervision experience for Education-Based entry applicants is a minimum of 100 hours of clinical supervision of supervisees providing art therapy services, in addition to a minimum of 35 continuing education credit hours of supervision.

1.1.9 When appropriate, art therapists should obtain qualified medical or psychological consultation for cases in which such evaluation and/or administration of medication is required. Art therapists must not provide services other than art therapy unless certified or licensed to provide such other services.

In 2008 and again in 2012, the ATCB completed a national job analysis to provide a basis for the continuing development of the ATCBE, ensuring that the content of the examination is job related. The primary goal of this study, to develop a base of art therapy job activities for the continuing development of a criterion-referenced examination was accomplished. Each form of the examination follows specific test specifications, thus providing evidence to support decisions regarding candidates' ability to perform the art therapists' job.
