(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2030)
Sec. 5-35. Examination; managing broker, broker, or residential leasing agent.
(a) The Department shall authorize examinations at such
times and places as it may designate. The examination shall be of a character to give a fair test of the qualifications of the applicant to practice as a managing broker, broker, or residential leasing agent. Applicants for examination as a managing broker, broker, or residential leasing agent shall be required to pay, either to the Department or the designated testing service, a fee covering the cost of providing the examination. Failure to appear for the examination on the scheduled date, at the time and place specified, after the applicant's application for examination has been received and acknowledged by the Department or its designated testing service, shall result in the forfeiture of the examination fee.
An applicant shall be eligible to take the
examination only after
successfully completing the education requirements
and
attaining the
minimum age provided for in Article 5 of this Act. Each applicant shall be required to
establish compliance with
the eligibility requirements in the manner provided by the rules
promulgated for
the administration of this Act.
(b) If a person who has received a passing score on the written examination
described in this Section fails to submit an application and meet all
requirements for a license
under this Act within
one year after receiving a passing score on the examination, credit for the
examination shall
terminate. The person thereafter may make a new application for examination.
(c) If an applicant has failed an examination 4 consecutive times, the applicant must
repeat the pre-license
education required to sit for that examination. For the purposes of this
Section, the fifth attempt
shall be the same as the first. Approved education, as prescribed by this Act
for licensure as a
managing broker, broker, or residential leasing agent, shall be valid for 2
years after the date of satisfactory completion of the education.
(d) The Department may employ consultants for the purposes of preparing and conducting examinations. (Source: P.A. 101-357, eff. 8-9-19.)
