§ 7664 Embalmer Apprenticeship Certificate Expiration

Key Takeaways

  • •An apprentice embalmer's certificate expires when they get their embalmer license or after 6 years, whichever comes first.
  • •You can't renew the certificate, but if you haven't finished your training when it expires, you can apply for a new one.
  • •The bureau may give you credit for the time you already trained if you re-register, but your total training time can't go beyond the limit set by another rule.

Example

John starts training to become an embalmer and gets his apprentice certificate. After 4 years, his certificate expires because he hasn't finished his training yet.

John can't just renew his old certificate. Instead, he has to apply for a new one. The bureau might count the 4 years he already trained, but he still has to finish his training within the total time allowed by the rules.

§ 7664 Embalmer Apprenticeship Certificate Expiration

Certificates of apprenticeship issued pursuant to this article shall expire when the holder has been issued a license as an embalmer, or six years from the date of registration, whichever first occurs. The certificates may not be renewed, but an apprentice embalmer who has not completed his or her term of apprenticeship at the time his or her certificate expires may apply for reregistration upon compliance with Section 7661. The bureau may, when the circumstances warrant, allow an apprentice credit under a reregistration for the time actually served under a previous registration, but no reregistration shall have the effect of continuing the term of apprenticeship beyond the period specified in Section 7666. (Amended by Stats. 2000, Ch. 568, Sec. 123. Effective January 1, 2001.)
