Florida DBPR contractor licenses renew on a 2-year biennial cycle and require 14 hours of CE. Of those 14 hours, 1 hour must cover Advanced Building Code (ADV). This 1-hour course satisfies that single Advanced Building Code requirement.

Editor Note: Verify the current Florida Building Code edition referenced on the live page (8th Edition / 2023). The Florida Building Code is updated on a multi-year cycle - if the state has adopted a newer edition by the time of publication, the course title and content references should be updated.
