FES Continuing EducationContinuing Education Requirements for Professional Engineers Florida Engineering Society (FES) is an exempt approved provider of continuing education through the Florida Board of Professional Engineers (FBPE). Licensed Professional Engineers are required to earn 8 Professional Development Hours of board-approved continuing education during the biennium cycle of March 1, 2011 through February 28, 2013. These 8 PDHs must include 4 hours of Laws & Rules on Chapters 471 F.S. and 61G15 F.A.C. and 4 hours of Area of Practice. Advanced Work Zone Traffic Control Course Thank you for contacting FES/FICE regarding the Advanced Work Zone Traffic Control Course. FICE does not plan to offer the Advanced 20-hour and Refresher course in 2013. Rules for renewal are set by the Florida Department of Transportation. Training or Refresher courses are required every four years for all persons to continue to be qualified to perform their assigned duties. Persons who have maintained current certification from an approved Provider may take a training or refresher course to comply with this procedure. If your certification lapses, you are required to retake the 20-hour course. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. For more information, please visit the Florida Department of Transportation’s website: http://www.dot.state.fl.us/rddesign/MOT/MOT.shtm. Building Code Course Requirement In 2009, the Florida Legislature enacted changes to Chapter 471.0195, Fla. Stat., (Florida Building Code training for engineers). The change to the statute essentially removed the requirement for PEs to report the FBC core curriculum courses and, instead, required PEs covered by the law to take and report advanced or specialized courses on any portion of the Florida Building Code applicable to the licensee’s area of practice. Specifically, Section 471.0195 reads: Course Accreditation Our FBPE Approved Exempt Provider number is #0003823.
Florida Engineering Society is a USGBC Education Provider committed to enhancing the professional development of building industry and LEED Professionals through high-quality continuing education programs. As a USGBC Education Provider, we have agreed to abide by USGBC-established operational and educational criteria, and or subject to course reviews and audits for quality assurance. |
