In every proceeding involving assessment of a penalty, except a proceeding concerning unauthorized practice, the person being assessed the penalty shall have the right to choose to either pay the full amount of the penalty in accordance with 309 CMR 8.18 or attend and successfully complete a course of remedial education prescribed by the Board within reasonable deadline specified by the Board.
