§ 2825. Temporary permits
(a) An applicant for general radiography licensure, nuclear medicine technology licensure or radiation therapy licensure who meets all of the qualifications for licensure except passage of a required examination shall be issued a temporary permit. The permit shall authorize the holder to practice the branch of radiologic technology applied for until the results of the next examination taken by the applicant are distributed and acted on by the board.
(b) As soon as the results of the examination are distributed and acted upon by the board, a permit holder who passes the examination shall be granted permanent licensure. A graduate of an approved program of radiologic technology who fails the examination may have his or her temporary permit renewed or reissued no more than three consecutive times to permit the applicant to take the examination not more than four times. The fourth and final examination shall be taken only after the applicant has completed additional education or other remedial steps acceptable to the board. An applicant who thereafter fails an examination shall not be granted a temporary permit.
