Key legal question
Whether the examination commission was competent to assess, in abstract terms, if a training program satisfies the admission requirements for the intercantonal osteopathy examination.
Extracted holding
The commission was competent to decide the request because it concerned interpretation and application of the examination regulations, not formal recognition of a diploma.
Extracted reasoning
Admission to the exam depends on the exam regulations. A declaratory request is admissible where the applicant has a protected interest in knowing whether completion of the training will permit exam entry.
