    (225 ILCS 410/3A-6) (from Ch. 111, par. 1703A-6)

    (Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2016)

    Sec. 3A-6. Licensure; renewal; continuing education; examination; military service. The holder of a license issued under this Article may renew such license during the month preceding the expiration date thereof by paying the required fee, giving evidence the Department may prescribe of completing not less than 10 hours for estheticians, and not less than 20 hours of continuing education for esthetics teachers, within the 2 years prior to renewal. The training shall be in subjects, approved by the Department as prescribed by rule upon recommendation of the Board.

    A license that has expired or been placed on inactive status may be restored only by payment of the restoration fee and submitting evidence satisfactory to the Department of the current qualifications and fitness of the licensee including the completion of continuing education hours for the period following expiration.

    A license issued under the provisions of this Act that has expired while the holder of the license was engaged (1) in federal service on active duty with the Army of the United States, the United States Navy, the Marine Corps, the Air Force, the Coast Guard, or any Women's Auxiliary thereof, or the State Militia called into the service or training of the United States of America, or (2) in training or education under the supervision of the United States preliminary to induction into the military service, may be reinstated or restored without the payment of any lapsed renewal fees, reinstatement fee, or restoration fee if within 2 years after the termination of such service, training, or education other than by dishonorable discharge, the holder furnishes the Department with an affidavit to the effect that he or she has been so engaged and that his or her service, training, or education has been so terminated.

    The Department, in its discretion, may waive enforcement of the continuing education requirement in this Section, and shall adopt rules defining the standards and criteria for such waiver, under the following circumstances:

        (1) the licensee resides in a locality where it is

    demonstrated that the absence of opportunities for such education would interfere with the ability of the licensee to provide service to the public;

        (2) the licensee's compliance with the continuing

    education requirements would cause a substantial financial hardship on the licensee;

        (3) the licensee is serving in the United States

    Armed Forces; or

        (4) the licensee is incapacitated due to illness.
