Florida real estate continuing education
Florida continuing education keeps your real estate license active after the first renewal cycle. Use this guide to confirm CE hours, renewal cadence, reporting expectations, and how Casa Academy helps you complete renewal CE online.
Reviewed by Casa Academy and updated March 16, 2026 using the current DBPR checklist and Pearson VUE scheduling guidance.
Continuing education (CE) applies after your first renewal cycle. Florida uses a 45-hour post-licensing course for the first renewal, then CE for later renewals. Check your DBPR renewal window to confirm which requirement applies.
Most Florida sales associates and brokers complete 14 hours of CE each renewal cycle, including required core topics and specialty hours. Your DBPR account lists your exact renewal deadline and any license-specific requirements, so check it before you assume the deadline.
The easiest way to make renewal harder than it needs to be is to take the wrong course, wait too long to verify reporting, or miss your DBPR deadline. Confirm whether you need post-licensing or CE first, finish early, and verify your completion posts before you submit renewal.
Casa Academy offers a self-paced online CE course with required core content and completion tracking. After you finish, the provider reports course completion to DBPR; verify the update in your DBPR portal and keep your completion confirmation.
If you are past your first renewal cycle, enroll in the Casa Academy continuing education course and review current pricing on the course page. If you are in your first renewal cycle, use the post-licensing guide instead so you do not buy the wrong product.
Most renewal cycles require 14 hours of continuing education for sales associates and brokers. First renewals typically use post-licensing instead of standard CE, so confirm your requirement in DBPR.
Florida renewals are generally on a two-year cadence. Your DBPR account lists the exact expiration date and renewal window for your license.
