Section 13:35-12.14B - License reinstatement: electrologist and electrology instructor

(a) A licensee whose license has been suspended pursuant to N.J.A.C. 13:35-12.14(e) may apply to the Committee for reinstatement. A licensee applying for reinstatement shall submit:

1. A reinstatement application;

2. A certification of employment listing each job held during the period of suspended license, which includes the name, address, and telephone number of each employer;

3. The renewal fee for the biennial period for which reinstatement is sought;

4. The past due renewal fee for the biennial period immediately preceding the renewal period for which reinstatement is sought;

5. The reinstatement fee as set forth at N.J.A.C. 13:35-12.22; and

6. Evidence of having completed all continuing education credits that were required to be completed during the biennial period immediately prior to the renewal period for which reinstatement is sought, consistent with the requirements as set forth at N.J.A.C. 13:35-12.19.

i. An applicant who holds a valid, current license in good standing issued by another state to engage in the practice of electrology and submits proof of having satisfied that state's continuing education requirements for that license, shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements at (a)6 above. If the other state does not have any continuing education requirements, the requirements at (a)6 above shall apply.

ii. Notwithstanding (a)6i above, an applicant shall satisfy the continuing education requirement pertaining to universal precautions set forth at N.J.A.C. 13:35-12.19(c).

(b) If Committee review of an application establishes a basis for concluding that there may be practice deficiencies in need of remediation prior to reinstatement, the Committee may require the applicant to submit to, and successfully pass, an examination or an assessment of skills, a refresher course, or other requirements as determined by the Committee prior to reinstatement of the license. If that examination or assessment identifies deficiencies or educational needs, the Committee may require the applicant, as a condition of reinstatement of licensure, to take and successfully complete any education or training or to submit to any supervision, monitoring, or limitations as the Committee determines is necessary to assure that the applicant practices with reasonable skill and safety. The Committee, in its discretion, may restore the license subject to the applicant's completion of the training within a period of time prescribed by the Committee following the restoration of the license. In determining whether there are practice deficiencies requiring remediation, the Committee shall consider the following non-exhaustive list of factors:

1. Length of time license was suspended;

2. Employment history;

3. Professional history;

4. Disciplinary history and any action taken against the applicant's license by any licensing board;

5. Actions affecting the applicant's privileges taken by any institution, organization, or employer related to the practice of electrology or other professional or occupational practice in New Jersey, any other state, the District of Columbia, or in any other jurisdiction;

6. Pending proceedings against a professional or occupational license issued to the licensee by a professional board in New Jersey, any other state, the District of Columbia, or in any other jurisdiction; and

7. Civil litigation related to the practice of electrology or other professional or occupational practice in New Jersey, any other state, the District of Columbia, or in any other jurisdiction.
