The AAMFT Approved Supervisor designation implies that the designee is actively engaged in and available to provide clinical supervision. Currently, the designation is good for 5 years but must be renewed at least 3 months prior to the expiration of the five-year term. Renewing the designation for another 5-years is a 2-step process. The AAMFT Approved Supervisor must complete an AAMFT offered 6-hour Refresher Course within two years prior to their 5-year renewal date and submit a renewal application form at least 3 months before the expiration date.
