Section 544B.8. Examination.
-
The board shall conduct examinations of applicants for certificates of licensure as professional landscape architects at least once each year, or, if there are sufficient applications, at such additional times as the board may deem necessary. The examination shall determine the ability of the applicant to use and understand the theory and practice of landscape architecture and may be divided into such subjects as the board deems necessary. The board shall determine the annual cost of administering the examinations and shall set the fees accordingly. The public members of the board shall be allowed to participate in administrative, clerical, or ministerial functions incident to giving the examination, but shall not determine the content of the examination or determine the correctness of the answers.
An applicant who has failed the examination may request in writing information from the board concerning the applicant’s examination grade and subject areas or questions which the applicant failed to answer correctly, except that if the board administers a uniform, standardized examination, the board shall only be required to provide the examination grade and such other information concerning the applicant’s examination results which are available to the board.
