§ 33-35-110 — Temporary permit

(a) An applicant who fulfills the requirements set forth
in W.S. 33-35-109(a), may obtain a temporary permit upon
application to the board. Previous experience or a waiting
period is not required to obtain a temporary permit.
(b) Upon receiving an application accompanied by a fee set
by the board pursuant to W.S. 33-1-201, the board shall issue a
temporary permit entitling the applicant to engage in either the
fitting, dispensing or sale of hearing aids for a period of one
(1) year. A person holding a valid hearing aid specialist
license is responsible for the supervision and training of an
applicant operating under a temporary permit.
(c) The board shall issue a temporary permit for use
without supervision by a licensee, to an applicant entering into
a hearing aid dealership as sole owner, principal of a firm or
as an employee-manager of a corporation if he fulfills the
requirements of W.S. 33-35-109(a), and has been principally
engaged in the practice of fitting, dispensing or dealing in
hearing aids for at least two (2) years within the three (3)
years immediately prior to the application.
(d) If a person who holds a temporary permit under
subsection (b) of this section has not successfully passed the
licensing examination within one (1) year from the date of
issuance, the temporary permit may be renewed once upon payment
of a fee as set by the board pursuant to W.S. 33-1-201. This
renewal shall not be granted to holders of temporary permits
under subsection (c) of this section.
