NCARB maintains and validates the continuing, comprehensive record of training and the board has adopted NCARB's AXP as the board-approved structured training program. The board has adopted the NCARB ARE and grading procedure prepared by NCARB as the state examination for licensure. NCARB administers the entire examination for Washington candidates, and collects examination and reexamination fees accordingly. Candidates may take portions of the examination concurrently while enrolled in the AXP. No review or appeal of failed examinations is accepted by the department or the board.
