After a program's approval is withdrawn, the program may be eligible to reapply for initial approval in accordance with certain timelines:

(1) The commission will withdraw approval when the training program loses approval by the office of the superintendent of public instruction, state board of community and technical colleges, workforce training board, or department of social and health services. The program may reapply immediately for initial approval upon regaining approval by the office of the superintendent of public instruction, state board of community and technical colleges, workforce training board, or department of social and health services.

(2) When approval lapses for failure to renew, the program may reapply for initial approval after 90 days. If the program reapplies, receives initial approval, and does not renew a second time, the program may not reapply for initial approval for at least one year.

(3) When approval is withdrawn due to no first-time test-takers within a period of two years, the program may reapply for initial approval six months after notification of withdrawal. If the program reapplies, receives initial approval and has no first-time test-takers again at its one-year program evaluation, the commission may withdraw program approval, and the program may not reapply for initial approval for at least one year after notification of withdrawal.

(4) If the commission withdraws a program's initial or conditional status, the program may reapply for initial approval after one year if it can demonstrate meeting program standards and evidence that the basis for the commission's withdrawal of approval no longer exists.

(5) A program with initial or conditional approval status withdrawn twice by the commission may not reapply for initial approval for at least two years after the date of the second withdrawal.

(6) A program application that includes the same program owner, program director, or instructor(s) from a previous program which had approval withdrawn may be considered by the commission as a reapplication from the previous program, subject to the regulations in this chapter; this applies even if the program has a new name or is operated by a different corporate entity.
