Section 041-24-3 - Examination1. A person applying for an instructor license shall take and pass the NIC National Written and Practical Instructor Examination, or its successor. A written and/or practice examination created and administered by another licensing jurisdiction may be considered if that examination is deemed by the Director to be comparable to the current NIC examination requirement for a Maine applicant for licensure2. An applicant who fails the required examination may retake the examination at a subsequent sitting. An applicant who fails to pass the required examination within one year from the first sitting must retake the full examination. 02-041 C.M.R. ch. 24, § 3
