A National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES) Record will be acceptable as evidence.(2) The term "year" as appears in Section 472.013, F.S., when referring to an applicants' experience record, is defined as twelve (12) months of full time employment as a subordinate to a registered surveyor and mapper in the active practice of surveying and mapping. Full time employment is at least 32 hours per week.(3) Experience while in "responsible charge" gained through full time employment before an applicant has reached the age of eighteen (18) may not be used to meet the experience record requirements of Section 472.013, F.S., exceptions to said rule shall be made on a case by case basis subject to Board approval.Fla.
