Common
Problem on PE License Renewal
We
have just been notified of a problem for Florida
Professional Engineers renewing their license and
we wanted to communicate this information to as
many Florida PE's as we could, so please forward to
other organizations and professionals as you deem
appropriate.
When
you are submitting certificates for continuing
education, they must have the FBPE (Florida Board
of Professional Engineers) Provider number of the
teaching organization on them. For example, any
certificate from IEEE must have the FBPE Provider
Number EXP00015 on it. Just listing the provider
number on your registration form is not sufficient,
it must be on the certificate.
At
least one IEEE Class with a certificate from IEEE
Corporate did not have the FBPE provider number on
the certificate. The Nov 1&4th Relaying for
Planners course did not have this number, and those
certificates are going to be resent in the next few
days. IEEE Corporate is in the process of reviewing
all certificates issued for Florida classes and
reissuing any that did not have the provider number
on them. While IEEE Corporate (Sharon Strock's
group) is checking their records, we would suggest
you check your IEEE certificates yourself for
compliance.
This
is may not be an IEEE only problem, please check
any certificates you have from other providers and
insure that the FBPE provider number is on them.
IEEE
and I are not legal counsel and can not provide you
with specific advice pertaining to your
professional registration renewal. If you have any
questions about the status of your renewal, the
consequences of sending in a non-compliant
certificate or other licensing issues, please first
review the FBPE website (www.fbpe.org) and then
forward your question or comment to the FBPE.
