How To Use The "Find A CE Course" Search Tool

As you’re getting ready to complete your CE requirements, you may want to seek out new Providers with new or different types of courses to broaden your insurance knowledge. Our Find A CE Course search tool can help. This search tool can be used to locate any specific provider, course authority, or study method you may be looking for. In order to yield the broadest of results to choose from, simply input your preferred study method and the course authority. There is nothing wrong with adding additional search criteria. However, if you ever feel like the list of results is too short, try removing some of the search criteria and run the query again.

In the example below, you can see the CE button at the very top is checked, and I’ve selected online self-study for the study method. Let’s assume for this example I only need to complete my Law And Ethics Update course to satisfy my requirements for this cycle, so I’m going to use the CE 5-220 for the course authority, as I hold a General Lines 2-20 license:

In the image below you will see the first few results from our query (the list was far too long to list them all). There are several pieces of useful information you can see from our list. From the top and working your way down, you can see the course ID number and name, the dates of the scheduled offering, the course authority and approved hours of course credit, and finally the Provider name.

If you click on the course title, it will lead you to another page with a more detailed description of the course. If you click on the name of the Provider it will take you directly to the Provider’s website, where you can get additional details about the course and Provider, costs and enrollment, etc. The best part about using our Find A CE Course search tool is, you know that every single course and Provider listed have been approved by our office. You never have to guess whether or not a course or Provider is approved to offer CE credits in Florida. The Department’s Find A CE Course search tool is an easy and reliable way to locate approved Providers and courses and will hopefully help to keep our Licensees complaint with the CE requirements.
