(B) displayed on the Commission website by license
category.
(2) The Commission will calculate the exam passage
rate of an approved provider on a monthly basis by:
(A) determining the number of students affiliated with
that approved provider who passed the examination on their first attempt
in the two-year period ending on the last day of the previous month;
and
(B) dividing that number by the total number of students
affiliated with that provider who took the exam for the first time
during that same period.
(3) A student is affiliated with a provider under this
subsection if the student took the majority of his or her hours of
qualifying education with the provider in the two year period prior
to taking the exam for the first time.
(4) For purposes of approving a subsequent application
under subsection (j), the established exam passage rate benchmark
for each license category is 80% of the average percentage of the
total examinees for that license category who passed the examination
on the first attempt in the two year period ending on the last day
of the previous month.
(5) If at the time the Commission receives a subsequent
application for a provider, the provider's exam passage rate does
not meet the established benchmark for a license category the provider
will be:
(A) disapproved for that license category if the provider's
exam passage rate is less than 50% of the average percentage of the
total examinees for that license category who passed the examination
on the first attempt in the two year period ending on the last day
of the previous month; or
(B) placed on probation by the Commission if the provider's
exam passage rate is 50% or greater of the average percentage of the
total examinees for that license category who passed the examination
on the first attempt in the two year period ending on the last day
of the previous month.
(6) The exam passage rate of a provider on probation
will be reviewed annually at the time the annual operating fee is
due to determine if the provider can be removed from probation, remain
on probation or have its license revoked, based on the criteria set
out in paragraph (5) of this subsection.
