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.
