Florida Licensure Education Track 1 – Building Code Basics for Builders and Permit Technicians

This one-hour course introduces builders and permit technicians to the foundational building code knowledge needed to successfully prepare, review, and submit permit applications. Participants will gain a working understanding of the most commonly referenced building codes, how those codes references influence construction requirements, and what information must be included on permit applications for approval. The course emphasizes real-world application, helping participants identify key code-related details—like occupancy classification, construction type, egress requirements, and fire-resistance ratings—that impact plan review and inspections. Designed for both field and office professionals, this class bridges the communication gap between plan reviewers and staff preparing construction documents.
