Can a person whose registration has been cancelled continue to practice?

The individual whose registration has been cancelled cannot continue to practice unless they receive consent from the Board of Examiners. This principle is grounded in the regulations governing professional practice, which are designed to maintain high standards of competency and ethics within the profession. A cancellation typically indicates that the individual has not met certain requirements, such as professional standards, ethical conduct, or necessary qualifications.

Without board consent, any practice by the individual could be considered unauthorized and potentially harmful to the credibility of the profession. Consent from the Board of Examiners would generally involve a formal process to evaluate the individual’s qualifications or circumstances that may justify reinstatement. This regulation underscores the importance of oversight in protecting public interest and ensuring that only qualified persons are allowed to practice in their field.

In contrast, options suggesting automatic continuation of practice, even with conditions or permits, undermine the primary objective of maintaining professional integrity and accountability after a cancellation, whose reasons may vary from misconduct to failure in meeting professional competencies.
