(1) applies to the board in the form and manner prescribed by the board;
(2) is at least eighteen (18) years of age;
(3) has not been convicted of a crime that has a direct bearing upon the individual's ability to practice competently;

(2) shall provide the applicant's employer with a receipt issued by the board that:
(A) provides the date an application under this section was filed; and
(B) indicates that the fee has been paid;
before the applicant may begin work as a pharmacy technician in training; and
(3) may request an additional thirty (30) day period to practice as a pharmacy technician in training without a permit. The board may approve a request under this subdivision if the board determines that the extension is for good cause.
(c) A pharmacy technician in training permit expires on the earliest of the following:

(4) Sixty (60) days after the date that the permit holder successfully completes a program approved by the board.
(5) Twelve (12) months after the date of issuance.
(d) For good cause, the board may waive the age requirement in subsection (a)(2).
