Experience Requirement

Notice of Proposed Rule

(Amendment)

DAR File No.: 33224
Filed: 11/30/2009 03:44:29 PM

RULE ANALYSIS

Purpose of the rule or reason for the change:

This amendment is proposed to allow individuals to calculate experience toward licensure in terms of hours rather than in terms of both points and hours.

Summary of the rule or change:

Throughout, the term "point" is replaced with the term "hour," and the required points are converted to hours by a factor of five; i.e., where 1 point was required, now 5 hours are required. The number of hours allowed for data entry is changed to 0.25, or 15 minutes.

State statutory or constitutional authorization for this rule:

  • Sections 61-2b-1 through 61-2b-40

Anticipated cost or savings to:

the state budget:

The state might realize some savings in time required to review experience logs. Staff will have to analyze only the hours claimed rather than analyzing both points and hours. However, the state budget will not be affected.

local governments:

Local governments are not required to complete or review the experience logs that are required for appraiser licensure and certification.

small businesses:

Small businesses are not required to complete or review the experience logs that are required for appraiser licensure and certification. Small businesses that hire trainees and appraisers may choose to assist in tracking hours toward licensure and certification. Those businesses will benefit from having the process simplified.

persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local governmental entities:

Affected persons who are logging their experience in order to qualify for licensure or certification must record that experience in terms of hours. They no longer have to calculate points as well. There are no costs associated with relieving them of this additional requirement.

Compliance costs for affected persons:

To comply, affected persons must log their experience in terms of hours only. This amendment should make it easier for them to record their experience. It will not impose any costs.

Comments by the department head on the fiscal impact the rule may have on businesses:

No fiscal impact to businesses is anticipated from this rule filing, which simplifies the method of calculating experience toward licensure.
