✅ Is This a Complete Florida Insurance CE Package?
- For eligible Florida 2-15 and 2-18 agents who have been licensed for six years or more and whose MyProfile account shows a 20-hour requirement, this package is designed to provide the complete CE combination:
- 4-Hour Law & Ethics Update under CE 5-215
- 16 hours of approved elective continuing education
- 20 total Florida insurance CE hours
- Florida assigns continuing education requirements individually. Before enrolling, check your DFS MyProfile CE Status page to confirm:
- Your license is assigned CE 5-215
- Your current total requirement is 20 hours
- You have not already completed one of the included courses within the previous two years
- You do not qualify for a lower CE requirement
- Agents licensed for fewer than six years generally have a 24-hour requirement and should consider the Florida 24-Hour Life, Health & Annuity CE Package instead.
✅ Important License-Type Information
- This package is specifically built around the CE 5-215 Law & Ethics Update.
- CE 5-215 generally applies to:
- Florida 2-15 Health & Life agents, including annuities and variable contracts
- Florida 2-18 Life and Health agents
- This package may not be the correct complete package for:
- Florida 2-14 or 2-16 Life and Annuity-only agents, who are generally assigned CE 5-214
- Florida 2-40 Health-only agents, who are generally assigned CE 5-240
- If you hold multiple Florida insurance licenses, review your MyProfile account to determine which four-hour Law & Ethics Update has been assigned to your current compliance period.
✅ Florida CE Requirements for Agents Licensed Six Years or More
- Florida insurance agents must complete a four-hour update course specific to their license during each applicable two-year compliance period.
- For eligible 2-15 and 2-18 agents, that update course is generally CE 5-215.
- Agents who have been licensed for six years or more generally need:
- 4 hours of Law & Ethics Update education under CE 5-215
- 16 hours of approved elective continuing education
- 20 total hours every two years
- This package provides that exact four-hour plus 16-hour combination.
- Some experienced licensees may qualify for an additional reduction based on years licensed, qualifying professional designations, or insurance-related education. Always rely on the current requirement shown in your MyProfile account.
✅ When Is Florida Insurance CE Due?
- Florida insurance continuing education is generally due every two years during the licensee’s birth month.
- Your exact CE compliance deadline is displayed in your Florida DFS MyProfile account. MyProfile also shows:
- Your required Law & Ethics Update authority
- Your total required CE hours
- Courses and credits already completed
- Remaining elective hours
- Whether reported credits have posted
- Complete your courses before the deadline so there is enough time for your credits to be reported and reflected on your transcript.
✅ How to Maintain Your Florida Insurance License
Florida insurance agent licenses are generally perpetual rather than renewed through a traditional two-year license-renewal application. However, agents must complete their assigned continuing education and maintain any required appointment to remain compliant.
Step 1: Check Your DFS MyProfile Account
- Review your CE Status page and confirm:
- Your license type
- Your compliance deadline
- Your required number of hours
- Whether CE 5-215 is assigned

Step 4: Complete the Courses Online

Step 5: Receive Your Instant Emailed Certificate
Your certificate is emailed immediately after you complete the applicable course requirements.
Step 6: We Report Your Credits to Florida DFS
