What this form is.

  • A week-by-week record of your supervised experience hours as an associate.
  • Column A is direct clinical hours. Column B is non-clinical hours, split into B1 individual or triadic supervision and B2 group supervision. Column C is the week's total.
  • Two caps apply: no more than 40 hours in a week may be counted, and no more than 6 hours of supervision in a week.

Who signs it

You and your supervisor, week by week. California's 2022 supervision regulation changes are the source for the weekly signature expectation.

Common mistakes.

Most are easy to catch while the work is fresh.

  • Saving it all up and asking for one signature at the end. The log is weekly for a reason.
  • Putting supervision hours in column A. Supervision is column B.
  • Recording a week over the caps and assuming the board will simply count the extra. It may not.
  • Weeks with a gap in the middle, because a supervisor was away and nobody logged it.

How HourSign fills it in.

  • HourSign builds one row per week, Monday to Sunday, in the same A, B1, B2 and C shape as the form.
  • A week over 40 hours, or over 6 supervision hours, is flagged and shown, never silently trimmed. The board decides, not HourSign.
  • The weekly prompt on your home screen nudges you to send the current week for signature while it is still fresh.

HourSign's page is not the board's form. It carries the board's layout so the numbers can be copied across, or so the page can be stapled behind the board's own copy. Every page says so.
