Applicants for licensure must pass a two-part licensing examination approved by the board, of which Part I is a written examination and Part II is an advisory board evaluation. Applicants must pass the written examination in order to sit for the advisory board evaluation.

The applicant must follow all rules established by the department with regard to conduct at the examination. Such rules include any written instructions communicated prior to the examination date and any instructions communicated at the site, either written or oral, on the date of the examination. Failure to comply with all rules established by the department with regard to conduct at the examination will be grounds for denial of application.
