Rule 61-6.011. Exemption from Continuing Education Requirements

(1) Starting July 1, 2024, and on at least a weekly basis thereafter, the Department shall determine the licensees that are exempt from all continuing education requirements for the current biennial licensure period. Within thirty (30) days from the start of a biennial licensure cycle, the Department shall determine the licensees who do not meet all requirements specified in section 455.2124, Florida Statutes, and are therefore still required to complete all continuing education requirements for licensure renewal. For the purposes of this determination, the term “discipline” is defined as a final order entered against a licensee pursuant to section 455.227, Florida Statutes, for any violation of chapter 455, Florida Statutes, or any violation of the licensee’s applicable practice act.
