Florida Property & Casualty Insurance Continuing Education Courses (E-learning)

Florida Property & Casualty Insurance Continuing Education

Florida Department of Financial Services approved online continuing education for general lines and personal lines licensees. All courses are DFS-approved (Provider ID# 370074), reported to the state on your behalf, and completed at your own pace with a printable certificate.

How Many Hours Do You Need?

Florida is unusual — your requirement depends on how long you have held the licence.

• Licensed under 6 years: 24 hours, made up of 20 elective hours plus the 4-hour Law and Ethics Update.
• Licensed 6 years or more: 20 hours, made up of 16 elective hours plus the 4-hour Law and Ethics Update.
• Customer representatives (04-40, 04-42) and industrial fire (02-33): 10 hours, being 6 elective hours plus the Law and Ethics Update.

Check your position on the MyProfile portal before buying — the 20-hour and 16-hour elective courses are not interchangeable.

The Law and Ethics Update

General Lines (2-20), Personal Lines (20-44), Customer Representative (04-40, 04-42) and Industrial Fire (02-33) licensees all take the same 5-220 version of the 4-hour Law and Ethics Update. Public Adjusters (03-20) and All Lines Adjusters take their own versions, 5-320 and 5-620 respectively.

Deadlines, Carry-Over and Repeats

CE is due every two years by the last day of your birth month. If you have not held the licence for 24 months when the first expiry falls, the initial deadline extends by a year. Miss it by 45 days and DFS issues a Preliminary Notice of Noncompliance and a Settlement Stipulation.

Up to 24 excess hours carry into the next term. You cannot repeat the same course within two years of the original completion date — the provider maintains alternate versions of its courses for this reason. Exams are closed-book, 70% to pass, with unlimited retakes. Keep your certificate for two years.

Flood Insurance Training

Before selling flood insurance, Florida producers must complete a one-time 3-hour NFIP training course to comply with FEMA and National Flood Insurance Program requirements.

Exemptions and Reductions

Motor vehicle physical damage, crop hail and multiple-peril crop, and dental representative licences are exempt from CE. Licensed in Florida for 25 years or more may qualify for a reduction. Holders of a Risk Management Insurance degree, or the CPCU or CLU designation, may be able to complete only 10 hours per term. Both reductions require an application.
