The fine print most trackers miss
Alabama-specific rules
These are the rules that catch LPC associates off-guard at submission. ClearPath flags each one in real time as you log.
- Required supervised experience does not begin until the ALC license is issued
- Hours earned outside Alabama are not accepted unless completed under an ABEC-approved LPC-S while working with Alabama residents
- Board may reduce the 3000-hour experience requirement by up to 2000 hours for qualifying graduate coursework beyond the master's degree
Built for Alabama
How ClearPath handles Alabama LPC
- Live rule validation. Every entry is checked against the 3,000-hour total, the 2,250-hour direct-client minimum, and the supervision ratios at the time you log it.
- Auto-filled official form. When you're ready to apply, ClearPath fills the official form of the Alabama Board of Examiners in Counseling from your records. It is the same PDF the board accepts, not a reproduction.
- Supervisor portal. Your supervisor logs in, reviews your weekly entries, and e-signs without printing. No paper PDFs, no scanning.
- AI hour reviewer. Ask plain-language questions about your log ("what week did I miss a supervision hour?") and get the exact answer in seconds.
- $25/year. One quarter the price of the legacy tracker.
