Rule 281-82.3 - Approval of training programs

The state board's approval of an organization's training program is based on the recommendation of the director after study of the evidence about the program in terms of the standards contained in this chapter. The department will seek maximum flexibility in the design of systems allowed to meet the goals of this program.

(1) Approval, if granted, will be for a term of seven years; however, approval for a lesser term may be granted by the state board if it determines conditions so warrant.

(2) If approval is not granted, the applicant organization will be advised concerning the areas in which improvement or changes appear to be essential for approval. In this case, the organization will be given the opportunity to present factual information concerning its program at a regularly scheduled meeting of the state board, no later than three months following the board's decision.

(3) Programs may be granted conditional approval upon review of appropriate documentation. In such an instance, the program will receive a full review after one year or, in the case ofa new program, at the point at which candidates demonstrate mastery of standards for authorization.

(4) The standards herein apply regardless of delivery mode of the training.

(5) All programs in existence prior to July 31, 2013, are deemed to meet program standards without having to submit an application for review.
