3.02. Notwithstanding section 3.01, where the diploma that is the subject of an application for equivalence was obtained 5 years or more before such application, the equivalence may be refused if the knowledge acquired by the candidate no longer corresponds to the knowledge presently taught as a result of the evolution of the profession.
However, the equivalence must be recognized if the pertinent work experience of the candidate and the training which he acquired since then has enabled him to attain the required level of knowledge.
