I think to be counted as work as a supervisor, you have to oversee people. Maybe not in charge of hiring and firing, and pay, but you need to have some authority over their work. This would make it hard to qualify working for a very small operation.
I encourage you to ask the AELS Board if supervision of people is a required element in order to count work experience as responsible charge. I have confidence that the response will state that supervision of people is not a requirement. Black’s says Supervision is “The act of managing, directing, or overseeing persons or projects.” An individual managing the decisions and actions that they take on a project would qualify as a supervisor under that definition. That’s the kind of experience that prepares a person for licensure.
