If a state-administered jurisprudence portion of the credentialing examination is failed, what is the policy for retaking it?

The policy regarding retaking the state-administered jurisprudence portion of the credentialing examination indicates that examinees may have the opportunity to retake the exam without any additional fees. This approach is designed to encourage applicants to refine their knowledge and understanding of the legal and ethical standards relevant to physical therapy practice in Nebraska.

Being able to retake the exam without incurring further costs promotes access to necessary credentialing for all applicants, ensuring that financial barriers do not prevent a qualified candidate from succeeding in obtaining their license. This policy is grounded in the understanding that assessments can be challenging, and providing a second chance without additional financial burden supports the continuing education and professional development of practitioners.

While retaining the integrity and standards of the examination process, this approach helps to foster a more inclusive environment for aspiring physical therapy professionals, ensuring they have multiple opportunities to meet the required competency levels.
