  (2)  An individual who qualifies for the privilege to practice under this section may offer or render professional services in this state, whether in person, by mail, telephone, or electronic means, and no notice or other submission shall be required of any such individual.

  (3)  An individual licensee of another state exercising the privilege afforded under this section and the firm which employs such licensee hereby simultaneously consent, as a condition of the grant of this privilege:

  (a)  To the personal and subject matter jurisdiction and disciplinary authority of the board;

  (b)  To comply with this chapter and the board's rules;
