An education provider creates a course where students can test out of certain modules if they demonstrate proficiency. A student tests out of 4 hours of content but still attends 16 hours of instruction. Has the pre-licensure requirement been satisfied?
Correct Answer
C) No, because the student must complete the full 20 hours of instruction
The SAFE Act requires completion of 20 hours of pre-licensure education instruction. Testing out of modules or demonstrating prior knowledge does not substitute for the required instructional hours that must be completed.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
The SAFE Act requires completion of 20 hours of pre-licensure education instruction. Testing out of modules or demonstrating prior knowledge does not substitute for the required instructional hours that must be completed.
