LICENSING

Overview

RULE:

6E-2.002

Institutional Licensure

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the proposed amendment is to incorporate the establishment of application deadlines in rule, as well as the process of providing applicants notice of deadlines.   The rule is intended to provide applicants clear notice and to allow for the review of licensure applications by the Commission in a timely and efficient manner.  The effect of the proposal is to require the Commission to set specific deadlines at least annually, to provide notice to applicants by electronic mail at least 30 days before the deadline and to require that applicants provide the Commission with an electronic address where notice of the deadline can be sent.

SUMMARY:

The proposed rule requires the Commission to set licensure application deadlines at least annually, to provide applicants of the deadline by two methods -- posting and by email, and to require that such notice be provided to an applicant at least 30 days before the deadline. The proposed rule also requires an applicant to provide to the Commission an electronic address where the notice can be sent and provides notice to the applicant of the obligation to meet the deadline and that the provisions of Rule 6E-4.001(8), which provides for a late fee for failing to meet Commission deadlines for licensure materials, applies.
