Applicants for examinations will be notified of the time and place of the examination not less than 6 weeks prior to the date of the examination.

(c) Certificate. Upon successful completion of certification requirements, an applicant will be awarded an official certificate prepared by the State Library, which will be valid without requiring renewal but, upon recommendation of the State Librarian, will be subject to annulment by the Department of Education under section 1211 of the Public School Code of 1949 (24 P.S. § 12-1211).
