Fire Safety Inspector I Certification


To be certified as a fire safety inspector I in the State of Florida, students must:
  • Successfully complete 200 hours of basic certification training for fire safety inspectors or have received training in another state.
  • Pass a state written examination.
  • Submit documentation of training with the required application for fire safety inspector certification examination (DI4-1023), a personal injury waiver (DI-1020) and all other supporting documents.
All documents must be sent at least 10 business days prior to the scheduled test date. The application requires a fingerprint card that must be obtained from the Bureau of Fire Standards and submitted with the application. Refer to the application and fingerprint card instructions and fee information (DI4-1019) for details.

Two 40-hour courses are required for certification; click the course titles below for further information.

All currently certified fire safety inspectors are mandated by law to attend the FSFC 0119 NFPA 1 course, which is designed to familiarize them with the recently adopted Florida Fire Prevention Code. Send proof of your completion of this course, in the form of an official certificate or transcript, to the Bureau of Fire Standards Training. For more information on this class, call the Seminole State Fire Academy at 407.708.2200.

Refer to the triennial renewal of fire safety and special fire safety inspector certification for renewal information.
