Haw. Code R. § 16-99-114 - Prohibited advertising practices
A continuing education provider shall not engage in any of the following acts:
(1) Provide any
information to the public or to a prospective student, which is false,
misleading, or deceptive. Information is "misleading" when there may be a
possibility that it will deceive the class of persons whom it intended to
influence;
(2) Use any name, other
than the full name or the trade name registered with the commission, for
advertising or publicity purposes;
(3) Advertise that it is "recommended,"
"endorsed," "approved," or "accredited" by the commission. A continuing
education provider may indicate that it is "registered" with the commission to
conduct courses to assist the licensee in obtaining the necessary continuing
education hours for license renewal;
(4) Advertise that it is endorsed by business
establishments, organizations, or individuals engaged in the kind of work for
which training is given until written evidence of this fact is filed with the
commission;
(5) Make or imply any
guarantee of employment or income to any student or prospective student unless
the continuing education provider can in fact guarantee employment or income
and the continuing education provider does so in writing;
(6) Advertise a course which has not been
certified by the commission, unless the advertisement clearly states that it is
a "proposed" or "tentative" offering, subject to the certification by the
commission; or
(7) Collect from any
prospective student any tuition or advance deposits unless the continuing
education course is certified by the commission.
