This substitute amendment differs from 2023 Senate Bill 193 in the following
respects:
1. Under the bill, renewal periods for credentials are changed from every two
years to every four years, and continuing education is then required to be completed
on a four-year basis instead of a two-year basis. To account for the longer renewal
period, for continuing education requirements where specific numbers of hours are
specified in the statutes, the number of hours is doubled. The bill grants emergency
rule-making authority to the Department of Safety and Professional Services and
credentialing boards, to allow them to modify their rules as needed to account for the
change in renewal periods, including to modify continuing education requirements
where specific numbers of hours are not specified in the statutes and are instead set
by rule.
Under the substitute amendment, for continuing education requirements
where specific numbers of hours are specified in the statutes, continuing education
continues to be required on a two-year basis, notwithstanding the change of renewal
periods from two years to four years. The substitute amendment provides that DSPS
or the interested examining board or affiliated credentialing board may 1) impose
discipline for a failure to meet continuing education requirements and may specify
makeup continuing education requirements that must be completed in order to
maintain a credential or to restore it to good standing and may 2) allow the holder
of a credential who fails to complete continuing education requirements within a
required period to complete such makeup requirements in order to be able to renew
the credential, notwithstanding the failure. The substitute amendment retains the
provision described above granting emergency rule-making authority.
2. The substitute amendment codifies into statute the number of hours of
continuing education required for real estate brokers and salespersons, for real
estate appraisers, and for professional land surveyors.
3. The substitute amendment provides for a six-month delayed effective date,
instead of the three-month delayed effective date specified in the bill.
