- CHAPTER 3. CLINICAL LABORATORY TECHNOLOGY
The department shall issue a clinical laboratory bioanalyst's
license to each person who is a lawful holder of a degree of master
of arts, master of science, or an equivalent or higher degree as
determined by the department with a major in chemical, physical,
biological, or clinical laboratory sciences. This education shall
have been obtained in one or more established and reputable
institutions maintaining standards equivalent, as determined by the
department, to those institutions accredited by the Western
Association of Schools and Colleges or an essentially equivalent
accrediting agency, as determined by the department. The applicant
also shall have a minimum of four years' experience as a licensed
clinical laboratory scientist, performing clinical laboratory work
embracing the various fields of clinical laboratory activity in a
clinical laboratory approved by the department. The quality and
variety of this experience shall be satisfactory to the department
and shall have been obtained within the six-year period immediately
antecedent to admission to the examination. The applicant shall
successfully pass a written examination and an oral examination
conducted by the department or a committee designated by the
department to conduct the examinations, indicating that the applicant
is properly qualified. The department may issue a license without
conducting a written examination to an applicant who has passed a
written examination of a national accrediting board having
requirements that are, in the determination of the department, equal
to or greater than those required by this chapter and regulations
adopted by the department. The department shall establish by
regulation the required courses to be included in the college or
university training.
