Petition for:
Waiver of New York State practical examination
requirement.
Statement of Problem:
Dr. Marnul has not passed a satisfactory practical examination, as
required for licensure, either by the endorsement or examination route. New York State accepts a passing score
on Part III of the examination of the National Board of Examiners in Optometry
(NBEO) to satisfy the practical examination requirement. The NBEO practical examination was not
available when Dr. Marnul was licensed in Illinois in 1982.
Dr. Marnul has documented over 20 years of
licensed practice and was certified in the use of diagnostic pharmaceutical
agents and therapeutic pharmaceutical agents. In addition to passing Parts I and
II of the NBEO examinations, which were required for licensure, he has also
passed the Treatment and Management of Ocular Disease (TMOD) examination, which
is currently required for certification to use therapeutic pharmaceutical agents
in New York State.
Based on Dr. Marnul' s demonstration of
clinical skills through his years of hands-on licensed practice and his success
on other professional examinations, the Executive Secretary of the State Board
for Optometry recommends that the requirement for a satisfactory practical
examination (NBEO Part III) be waived.

Petition
for: Waiver

examinations for licensure by endorsement.
Statement of
Problem: Dr. Dupree graduated from an accredited
college of veterinary medicine in 1982.
Dr. Dupree passed the December 1981 National Board Examination (NBE) but
has not taken the Clinical Competency Test (CCT), which was offered only from
1984 to 2000. For New York State
licensure, an applicant who passed the NBE must also pass the CCT. Both the NBE and the CCT have been
replaced by the North American Veterinary Licensing Examination (NAVLE).
Dr. Dupree became licensed in Louisiana in
1982 and in Pennsylvania in 1998 based on the NBE. He has documented approximately 22 years
of professional practice in Louisiana and Pennsylvania.
In view of Dr. Dupree’s documentation of 22
years of practice as evidence of clinical competence, the Executive Secretary of
the State Board for Veterinary Medicine recommends that the CCT examination
requirement be waived and that the applicant’s license be accepted for
endorsement in New York State.

Petition
for: Waiver
of New York State requirements pertaining to acceptability of education and
licensing examinations for licensure by endorsement.
Statement of
Problem: As a graduate of a veterinary medicine
program not accredited by the American Veterinary Medicine Association, Dr.
Stein is required to document completion of satisfactory clinical education equivalent to the clinical training in an
accredited veterinary medical program, such as certification by the Educational
Commission for Foreign Veterinary Graduates (ECFVG). Dr. Stein is unable to document a
year of clinical education and did not complete the ECFVG
program.
In addition, Dr. Stein passed the December
1982 National Board Examination (NBE) but not the Clinical Competency Test
(CCT). For New York State
licensure, an applicant who passed the NBE must also pass the CCT, which was
offered from 1984 until 2000.
The CCT and the NBE have been replaced by the North American Veterinary
Licensing Examination (NAVLE). For
licensure in California, Dr. Stein passed the California State Board Exam, a
written (practical) examination, in addition to the NBE examination, and has
practiced in that state since 1984.
In view of Dr. Stein’s documentation of over
19 years of licensed professional practice as evidence of clinical competence,
the Executive Secretary of the State Board for Veterinary Medicine recommends
that the applicant’s California license be accepted for endorsement in New York
State, waiving the requirements of the CCT examination and satisfactory clinical
training.
