Florida Real Estate License Renewal Requirements

Empire Learning is proud to be an approved CE provider in Florida!  

Sales Associate and Broker licenses expire every two years on either March 31 or September 30, based on the date you passed the license exam.  All licensees are required to complete 14 hours of continuing education for renewal, consisting of 3 hours of Core Law, 3 hours of Ethics and Business Practices, and 8 hours of specialty education.
