(A) Each applicant for a license required by this division of the Code shall appear before the Permits and Inspections Department, voluntarily or upon notice from the Permits and Inspections Department, and submit to examination and testing of his/her education and competency as may be required by this division in order to issue a license to the applicant.
(B) In lieu of the examination and testing of education referenced in (A) above, an applicant for a license under the provisions of this section may submit to the Permits and Inspections Department evidence, satisfactory to the building official, of having passed an examination and test equivalent to that required by this division, together with his/her license currently in effect issued to such applicant from a competent jurisdiction outside the jurisdiction of this city. If the building official finds that by virtue of such evidence and the license that the applicant has successfully passed an examination and testing of his/her education equivalent to that required by this division and also that the applicant then meets the other requisites of this division, the building official may accept such findings as an acceptable standard and issue to the applicant a license without submitting the applicant to further examination and testing.
