What action can the Board take regarding a revoked license or certificate?

The action that the Board can take regarding a revoked license or certificate is to reinstate it. When a license or certificate is revoked, it typically signifies that the individual has violated specific regulations or standards set by the board. However, in certain circumstances, the board may have provisions that allow for the reinstatement of the license or certificate after a specified period or under certain conditions. This can be contingent upon the individual's fulfillment of any imposed requirements, such as completing educational courses, undergoing additional training, or demonstrating rehabilitation.

Reinstatement does not happen automatically and is usually subject to a formal process where the individual must apply for reconsideration. The board evaluates the circumstances surrounding the revocation and determines whether the individual has demonstrated the necessary changes that warrant reinstatement.

In contrast, the other options don't align with the typical decisions the board can make following a revocation. Extending the suspension period, withdrawing all licensure, or increasing the probationary period are actions that would not apply to a revoked status, as these pertain more to licenses that are temporarily suspended rather than permanently revoked. Therefore, the option that allows for the possibility of a path back to licensure is the correct one.
