ICC Certifications
NOTE: Anyone can take an ICC exam to become a certified inspector. Most states / jurisdictions will accept this to get a license (if required).
The State of Florida has several additional requirements before you become licensed most notable:
- 5 years of field experience in each trade.
- 2 years of field experience in construction and complete a 300-hour Transition Program.
FYI
You do not have to have permission from the State of Florida to take any ICC exams. If you work for a governmental entity and want to only pay $5.00 to take an exam, then you will have to achieve their permission
This program does not offer CEUs for the state.
