    11B-20.0014Minimum Requirements for High-Liability and Specialized Instructor Certifications

    NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on March 31, 2015, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission received a petition for permanent waiver of subparagraph 11B-20.0014(2)(d)4., F.A.C., from Herlberto A. Fernandez, Director, Institute for Public Safety, Florida Keys Community College, on behalf of Kevin A. Angelilli. Petitioner wishes to retroactively waive from October 15, 2014, through February 16, 2015, that portion of the rule that states a high liability instructor have successfully completed a high-liability internship documented on the Instructor Competency Checklist form CJSTC-81 that is supervised by a certified first aid instructor. Petitioner states that Mr. Angelilli meets all other requirements to be a first aid instructor under Rule 11B-20.0014, F.A.C. Petitioner states that Mr. Angelilli possesses and maintains Instructor Trainer Certification from Emergency First Response in CPR/AED/First Aid-Infant/Child/Adult and Basic Life Support (BLS) Instructor from the American Heart Association; registered with the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians as a Paramedic in 2007; possesses an Associate in Applied Science (AAS) degree; and, has been employed full time and part time as Emergency Medical Technician in both West Virginia and Ohio.

    Petitioner states that due to a misinterpretation of subparagraph 11B-20.0014(2)(d)4., F.A.C., Mr. Angelilli was hired as an adjunct professor due to his qualifications and if the waiver is not granted a hardship will result for two academy classes, #55 and #57, taught at Florida Keys Community College in which Mr. Angelilli was an instructor. Petitioner states that a strict application of the rule would create an undue hardship and violate principles of fairness on those students who graduated from #55 and #57 in that they would have to return to complete the 40 hour block of instruction. Petitioner states that the purpose of the underlying statute will be or has been achieved by other means.

    A copy of the Petition for Variance or Waiver may be obtained by contacting: Linton B. Eason, Assistant General Counsel, Florida Department of Law Enforcement, P.O. Box 1489, Tallahassee, FL 32302 or by telephone: (850)410-7676.
