(1) (a) The division shall issue each license under this chapter in accordance with a two-year renewal cycle established by rule. (b) The division may by rule extend or shorten a renewal cycle by as much as one year to stagger the renewal cycles it administers. (2) Notwithstanding Subsection (1), a person who has once held a license as a funeral service intern and has not qualified for licensure as a funeral service director may be issued a subsequent funeral service intern license for only one additional two-year term upon the specific approval of the division in collaboration with the board. (3) At the time of renewal, the funeral service director licensee shall show satisfactory evidence of completion of continuing education as required under Section 58-9-304.

(c) If the funeral service director of a licensed funeral service establishment terminates employment with the establishment, the establishment has 90 days to hire a new licensed funeral service director before action may be taken against the license under Subsection (5)(a).
