In order to take the construction exam for Florida contracting licenses, a party must have at least four years of verifiable “active experience” as a worker in the relevant trade or scope of work (or educational equivalents), and of these four years, at least one year must be in supervisory capacity.
Specifically for a General Contractor license an applicant must meet one of the following:
Four year construction-related degree from an accredited college (equivalent to three years experience) and one year proven experience applicable to the category for which you are applying.
One year experience as a foreman and not less than three years of credits from accredited college-level courses.
One year experience as a worker, one year experience as a foreman, and two years of credits from accredited college-level courses.
Two years experience as a worker, one year experience as a foreman, and one year of credits from accredited college-level courses.
Four years experience as a worker or foreman of which at least one year must have been as a foreman.
