1. The State Fire Marshal will schedule the various examinations so that an applicant may take his or her examination within 90 days after the date of his or her application. Examinations will be conducted at the Office of the State Fire Marshal in Carson City during business hours with an appointment. Examinations for certificates of registration will also be conducted by appointment in Las Vegas. The State Fire Marshal may also conduct examinations for certificates of registration in additional locations within the State if he or she determines that there is sufficient demand for the additional locations. No appointment for an examination will be made until the applicant submits all required documentation to the Office of the State Fire Marshal in Carson City.
2. An applicant who fails the examination or a part of the examination must wait 15 calendar days after the date of the examination and pay the fee for retaking an examination set forth in NAC 477.325 before taking the test, or the failed part of the test, again. A person may not take the test for the same class of license more than three times in 1 calendar year.

4. An applicant shall not engage in cheating activities relating to an examination, including, without limitation:
(a) Copying answers from the test of another applicant;
(b) Using restricted materials, including, without limitation, answers to test questions;
(c) Offering to sell or distribute, or selling and distributing, test answers or questions; or
(d) Assisting others to engage in cheating activities.
5. The State Fire Marshal may revoke any certificate of registration if he or she determines that the applicant engaged in any cheating activities proscribed by subsection 4.
