Examinations


(1) The Office and Council-approved examinations for licensure are the IHS written examination, the Oregon Laws and Rules written examination, and the Oregon-administered practical examination. The Office may waive the Oregon-administered practical examination if the applicant has passed a practical examination outside of Oregon and that the Office has found to be sufficiently thorough to determine the qualifications, fitness, and ability of the applicant to practice as a hearing aid specialist.

(3) Examination candidates may be electronically monitored during testing.
(4) The Council will establish a maximum time allowance for each section of the Office-administered examination.
(5) Only items and materials required by the Office are allowed in the examination area.
(6) A candidate may be disqualified at any point during an examination; the examination may be invalidated and examination fees may be forfeited. Disqualifying conduct includes, but is not limited to:
(a) Directly or indirectly giving, receiving, soliciting, and attempting to give, receive or solicit aid during the examination.
(b) Violations of subsection (6) of this rule.
(c) Removing or attempting to remove any examination-related information, notes or materials from the examination site.
