reexamination.

A. A person applying for a license shall demonstrate his or her

eligibility in accordance with the requirements of Section 888.6 of

this title and shall make application for examination upon a form in

such a manner as the National Board for Certification in

Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) shall prescribe. A person who fails

the examination may make reapplication for reexamination accompanied

by the prescribed fee.

B. Each applicant for licensure pursuant to the provisions of

the Occupational Therapy Practice Act shall be examined on the

applicant's knowledge of the basic and clinical sciences relating to

occupational therapy and occupational theory and practice, including

the application of professional skills and judgment in the

utilization of occupational therapy techniques and methods and such

other subjects as the Board may deem useful to determine the

applicant's fitness to practice. The Board shall approve an

examination and establish standards for acceptable practice. NBCOT

shall be the approved provider for the examination according to

national standards for entry-level practice.

C. Applicants for licensure shall be examined at a time and

place as NBCOT may determine. Applicants must pass the examination

by a score determined by NBCOT. Examinations shall be given at

least two times each year at such places as NBCOT may determine.

D. In case of failure of any examination the applicant shall

have the privilege of a second examination on payment of the regular

fees. In case of a second failure, the applicant shall be eligible

for the third examination, but shall, in addition to the

requirements for previous examinations have to wait a specific

period as determined by NBCOT, not to exceed one (1) year, before

reexamination. The waiting period may include completion of

academic or clinical work as prescribed by rules promulgated by the

Board. A temporary license may be issued pursuant to the provisions

of Section 888.8 of this title. Further testing shall be at the

discretion of the Board and NBCOT guidelines.

E. Applicants shall be given their examination scores in

accordance with such rules and regulations as NBCOT may establish.
