Navigating Chapter 5J-17, F.A.C.: A Plain-Language Guide for Florida Surveyors is a correspondence continuing
education course designed to provide Florida-licensed surveyors and mappers with an overview of Chapter 5J-17,
Florida Administrative Code.
The course explains the structure, scope, and purpose of Chapter 5J-17 and reviews each section of the chapter
using verbatim rule text introduced by plain-language instructor commentary. The course focuses on explaining
what the rules say and how they are organized, rather than interpreting or expanding upon them.
Topics covered include licensure and renewal requirements, continuing education obligations, disciplinary
procedures, Board authority and operations, enforcement mechanisms, certificates of authorization, professional
conduct requirements, and the Standards of Practice sections contained within the chapter. The course is intended
to improve rule familiarity, compliance awareness, and navigation of the administrative code governing the practice
of surveying and mapping in Florida.
