(3) At least once in each calendar year, the department will schedule a date and location for the examination for certification of inspectors.

(4) Only applicants who have been authorized by the department to take an examination will be admitted to an examination or issued a certification as a result of passing an examination. Authorization to take an examination will be based on the applicant's compliance with the requirements of this chapter.

(5) To receive a passing grade on the examination, the applicant for certification must achieve a minimum score of 75 percent. An applicant who fails an initial examination may take a second examination.
