(225 ILCS 100/9) (from Ch. 111, par. 4809)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2028)
Sec. 9.
Examination for licensure.
The Department shall authorize
examinations of applicants as podiatric physicians at such times and places
as it may determine, so long as the examinations are administered at least
2 times each year. The examination of applicants shall be of a character
to give a fair test of the qualifications of the applicant to practice
podiatric medicine.
An applicant for examination as a podiatric physician
shall be required to
pay, either to the Department or the designated testing service, a fee
covering the costs of providing the examination. Failure to appear for the
examination on the scheduled date, at the time and place specified, after
the applicant's application for examination has been received and
acknowledged by the Department or the designated testing service, shall
result in the forfeiture of the examination fee.
If an applicant neglects, fails or refuses to take an examination or
fails to pass an examination for a license under this Act within 3 years
after filing the application, the application
is
denied. However, after the denial, the applicant may make a new application,
accompanied by the required fee, and provide evidence of meeting the
requirements in force at the time of the new application.
The Department may employ consultants for the purpose of preparing and
conducting examinations.
