Hello Dawn

This is to kindly inform you that after we sent out the Request for Variance on May 16, 2021, we got a notice to appear in front of the board. Today was the hearing and I am pleased to inform you that the request was accepted, they will accept the exam scores, and they will grant us the General Contractor License. Thank you ALL for what you did and your patience dealing with me and this fast/short time application. Have a great weekend and once again thank you for your services.

Dear API Staff

I recently received my certification on Construction industry. I’m still in awe. It took me some years and effort to get to this point. I would like to share with all of you this success and happiness since it means a lot to me and let you know that you are part of it. Thanks for your services, time and professionalism.

Fernando

Kristan and Dawn

As you already know this morning the DBPR approved my limited energy license, I want to say thank you for your professional work and all the advice you gave me. Please let your other co-workers know that I’m very greatfull with all. I’ll be in contact for the next steps.

Carlos Narvaez

Patricia

Thank you very much Patricia. I couldn’t have done it without you and your colleagues at API. I especially want to mention that if it weren’t for Kristin Barber, this wouldn’t have happened. Had it not been for her patience with me and knowledge of the process, I would have given up when I was really discouraged at times – we shared a couple of good laughs over the sheer insanity of it all through the more than a year long saga and it really made the difference.

Hi Dawn

I apologize for just following up now, but I wanted to thank you for all of your help and hard work on my Electrical License! It was issued at the ECLB meeting last month, and wanted to thank you for all of your help.
