MI HB5291

Creates a new "limited license" category for individuals pursuing experience in applied behavior analysis to meet certification requirements, with an annual fee of $150.00

Limited license holders must practice under supervision of a fully licensed behavior analyst and can only use the title "applied behavior analyst trainee"

Limited licenses are valid for 3 years and renewable for one additional 3-year term, allowing up to 6 years total to complete experience requirements

Eligibility for limited license requires either enrollment as a student in an approved behavior analysis program or pursuit of experience compatible with professional association certification requirements

Updates existing licensure provisions by removing outdated transitional language referencing the 2016 effective date and clarifying that the standard license cycle remains 4 years
