Many of Florida’s professions that are licensed by the Department of Business and Professional Regulation demonstrated industry growth in 2015. According to a report released by their department on December 31st, 2015, there were four professions that saw the greatest increase in licenses issued for 2015 – Certified Public Accountants, Barbers & Cosmetology, Real Estate, and Construction Contractors.
For a full list of figures for these professions, please see the table below:
Profession | Licenses Issued in 2014 | Licenses Issued in 2015* | Percent Increase |
Certified Public Accountants | 1,789 | 1,951 | 9.06% |
Barbers & Cosmetology | 26,868 | 27,895 | 3.82% |
Construction Contractors | 2,913 | 3,514 | 20.63% |
Real Estate | 29,723 | 34,293 | 15.38% |
Based on the numbers above, this indicates that Florida’s economy is not only thriving as a whole, but specifically in our industry of Construction, as we saw a 20.63% increase in number of licenses issued for 2015. As we begin the New Year, we hope that 2016 is a better, more prosperous year for the Construction industry and our Florida economy as a whole.
