How many additional attempts is an applicant entitled to if they do not pass the licensing examination on the first try?

An applicant who does not pass the licensing examination on their first attempt is entitled to two additional attempts. This means they can retake the exam up to a total of three times. This policy is designed to provide candidates with a fair opportunity to demonstrate their competency and knowledge in health facility administration. It acknowledges that not every candidate may perform at their best on the first try, while still maintaining rigorous standards for licensure. The structure of two additional attempts encourages applicants to review and improve their skills and knowledge before retesting, ensuring that only those adequately prepared for the responsibilities of a health facility administrator are granted a license.
