The bill amends section 455.2124 of the Florida Statutes to revise the applicability of continuing education requirements for licensure renewal. Specifically, it exempts certain building code administrators and inspectors from the continuing education requirements that apply to other professions. This change is intended 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 specifies that the continuing education exemption applies to building code administrators and inspectors regulated under part XII of chapter 468, while removing the exemption for several other professions, including engineers, certified public accountants, brokers, appraisers, architects, and contractors. The bill is set to take effect upon becoming law.
