The bill amends section 455.2124 of the Florida Statutes to revise the applicability of continuing education requirements for licensure renewal. Specifically, it exempts building code administrators and inspectors from the continuing education requirements that apply to other professions. This change aims to streamline the licensure process for these specific professionals, acknowledging that they may not require the same continuing education as those in other regulated fields.

In the revised language, the bill explicitly states that the continuing education requirements do not apply to building code administrators and inspectors regulated under part XII of chapter 468. Additionally, it removes the exemption for several other professions, including engineers, certified public accountants, brokers, appraisers, architects, and contractors, indicating a shift in focus towards the specific exemption for building code professionals. The bill is set to take effect upon becoming law.
