Teaching License Renewal Requirements in Florida
The Teachers Academy offers online professional development for Florida teachers. To renew your teaching certification in Florida, requirements vary depending on your specific license.
Generally, Florida teachers must submit the Renewal Application through their Certification Online account, ensuring it reaches the Bureau of Educator Certification before their certificate expires. Depending on the type of certificate, renewal may require six semester hours of college credit, including one in teaching students with disabilities (SWD). For educational leadership certificates, starting July 1, 2025, one college credit or 20 inservice points in Florida’s educational leadership standards is needed. Educators whose certificates began on or after July 1, 2020, need two college credits or 40 inservice points in evidence-based reading instruction for students with dyslexia.
