2006 Kansas Code - 1-304

      1-304.   Frequency of examinations; re-examination of candidates having conditional status; rules and regulations governing examination process; contractual authority of board. (a) Each examination provided for by this act shall take place as often as may be necessary in the opinion of the board, but not less frequently than once each year. A candidate who passes the examination in at least two subjects shall be deemed to have a conditional status and shall have the right to be re-examined in the remaining subjects only if a minimum grade of 50 was received in each of the failed subjects, at subsequent examinations held by the board, and if the candidate passes in the remaining subjects within a period of time specified in the rules and regulations of the board, such candidate shall be considered to have passed the examination. Upon the implementation of a computer-based examination, a candidate who has conditional status on the launch date of the computer-based examination shall be given a transition period to complete any remaining examination sections under conditions to be determined by rules and regulations of the board.

      (b)   After considering the need for uniformity with other states, the board may prescribe, by rule and regulation, the examination process, including but not limited to, the administration of the examination, application process, methods of grading, credit and determining a passing grade.

      (c)   The board may contract with third parties to perform administrative services with respect to the examination.
