(b)

If the deficiency is not corrected within 21 days of the date of the Notice of Deficiency, the request for accreditation will be terminated.

(4)

Upon approval of an application, a written accreditation agreement will be prepared by the Department. This agreement will not be valid until signed by the Department and the accreditation program manager.

(5)

An accreditation agreement expires two years from the effective date of the agreement. Employers may request a renewal of the accreditation agreement by submitting an application in accordance with section (1) of this rule.

During a review, the Department will, within a reasonable amount of time, be given access to personnel training records to verify training received under an accredited program.

(8)

The Department may terminate an accreditation agreement for any violation of the Act or these administrative rules or a failure to comply with the terms of the accreditation agreement. When the Department terminates an accreditation agreement:
