N.J. Admin. Code § 13:44M-3.2 - License reactivation

(a) A licensed elevator mechanic who holds an inactive license pursuant to N.J.A.C. 13:44M-3.1(c)may apply to the Board for reactivation of an inactive license. A licensed elevator mechanic seeking reactivation of an inactive license shall submit:

1. A renewal application;

2. A certification of employment listing each job held during the period of inactive license, which includes the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of each employer;

3. The renewal fee for the biennial period for which reactivation is sought as set forth in N.J.A.C. 13:44M-6.1; and

4. Evidence of having completed all continuing education credits for the current biennial registration period, consistent with the requirements set forth in N.J.A.C. 13:44M-4.1.

(b) An applicant who holds a valid, current license in good standing issued by another state to practice as an elevator contractor and submits proof of having satisfied that state's continuing education requirements, shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of (a)4 above. If the other state does not have any continuing education requirements, the requirements of (a)4 above apply.

(c) If a Board review of an application establishes a basis for concluding that there may be practice deficiencies in need of remediation prior to reactivation, the Board may require the applicant to submit to and successfully pass an examination or an assessment of skills, a refresher course, or other requirements as determined by the Board prior to reactivation of the license. If that examination or assessment identifies deficiencies or educational needs, the Board may require the applicant, as a condition of reactivation of licensure, to take and successfully complete education or training, or to submit to supervision, monitoring, or limitations, as the Board determines necessary to assure that the applicant practices with reasonable skill and safety. The Board may restore the license subject to the applicant's completion of training within a period of time prescribed by the Board following the restoration of the license. In making its determination whether there are practice deficiencies requiring remediation, the Board may consider the following non-exhaustive issues:

1. Length of time license was inactive;

2. Employment history;

3. Professional history;

4. Disciplinary history and any action taken against the applicant's license by any professional or occupational board;

5. Actions affecting the applicant's privileges taken by any institution, organization, or employer related to practicing as an elevator mechanic or other professional or occupational practice in New Jersey, any other state, the District of Columbia, or in any other jurisdiction;

6. Pending proceedings against a professional or occupational license issued to the licensed elevator mechanic by a professional or occupational board in New Jersey, any other state, the District of Columbia, or in any other jurisdiction; and

7. Civil litigation related to practicing as an elevator mechanic or other professional or occupational practice in New Jersey, any other state, the District of Columbia, or in any other jurisdiction.
