Key legal question
Whether the cantonal court could exclude candidacies on the ground that the regulation unlawfully narrowed the statutory notion of specific training by allowing professional experience.
Extracted holding
The cantonal court interpreted the statutory delegation too narrowly; experience may fall within the statutory notion of specific training, so the regulation was not ultra vires on that point.
Extracted reasoning
The Federal Court held that the term 'training' is not limited to formal diplomas or titles. In light of the text, purpose, structure, and legislative history, the legislature did not intend to restrict assessors to holders of specific diplomas; experience can also satisfy the requirement.
