45:14H-6 Licensing examination.

6. a. Every elevator, escalator, and moving walkway mechanic's license examination shall be substantially uniform and shall be designed so as to establish the competence and qualifications of the applicant to perform the type of work for which licensure is sought. The examination may be theoretical or practical in nature, or both, and may be based on an examination promulgated by a professional organization. Proof of passage of the National Elevator Industry Educational Program (NEIEP), or its successor organization's, examination shall be sufficient to satisfy the examination requirement of this section. The examination may be waived if the applicant provides adequate proof to the board of employment as an elevator, escalator, and moving walkway mechanic within the State for at least three years immediately prior to the date of application without the direct and immediate supervision of an elevator, escalator, and moving walkway mechanic licensed to do business within the State.

b.The examination shall be held at least four times a year, at Trenton or other place the board deems necessary. Public notice of the time and place of the examination shall be given by the board in accordance with the "Senator Byron M. Baer Open Public Meetings Act," P.L.1975, c.231 (C.10:4-6 et seq.).

c.No person who has failed the examination shall be eligible to be reexamined for a period of six months from the date of the examination failed by that person.

d.All applicants for elevator, escalator, and moving walkway mechanic's licenses, renewals or reexaminations shall pay a fee, established pursuant to regulation, for each license issuance or renewal, or reexamination as determined by the board.
