1. (a) The Commission-designated performance evaluations are randomly selected from each subject area within the applicable curriculum containing actual skill evaluations. This applies only for curricula in which performance standards have been developed. The provider of training will receive from the Commission, with the course approval notice, one envelope for each subject area as identified in the applicable curriculum.
2. (b) During the course of instruction, the training provider shall test for competency, the Commission-designated performance skills. The skill evaluations may be scheduled at any time during the course, but must take place after all training on the identified subject area has been completed. The date(s), time(s) and location(s) for the Commission-designated skill evaluations must be submitted on the Commission-designated skill schedule contained within the Training Prior Approval form. The Commission must be notified immediately of any deviation from the submitted Commission-designated skill schedule. All skills must be evaluated by a Commission-approved field examiner.
3. (c) In order to qualify for the Commission certification examination, the student must successfully complete and pass all designated skill evaluations. The student may be allowed two attempts to complete each skill. A second failure during the evaluation process will require remedial training in the failed skill area with a certified instructor before being allowed a third attempt. A third failure shall require that the student repeat the entire certification curriculum.
4. (d) The training facility must maintain records (electronic or paper) of skills testing on each examinee. The records must reflect the results of the evaluation of skills, the dates the evaluation of skills took place, and the names of the field examiners who conducted the evaluations.
