Ethics and Law in Florida Psychology is a new 3-hour online continuing education (CE) course that meets the ethics and law requirement for license renewal of Florida psychologists.
The purpose of this course is to ensure that Florida-licensed psychologists are fully aware of the ethical and legal privileges and constraints under which they are licensed to practice in the State of Florida. It provides the opportunity for a comprehensive reading of the APA Code of Ethics and the three sets of statutes and rules governing the practice of psychology in Florida. Completing this course will fulfill the requirement that licensed psychologists in Florida complete each biennial renewal period three hours of continuing education on professional ethics and Florida Statutes and rules affecting the practice of psychology. * This course satisfies the Ethics & Law in Florida Psychology requirement for biennial re-licensure of Florida psychologists.
Courses also required for renewal of Florida psychologists:
- Preventing Medical Errors in Behavioral Health – 2-hour course required each renewal
- Domestic Violence – 2-hour course required every third renewal
Ethics & Law in Florida Psychology provides instant access to the course materials and CE test. The course is text-based (reading), and the CE test is open-book (you can print the test to mark your answers on it while reading the course document).
Successful completion of the online CE test (80% required to pass, 3 chances to take) and course evaluation are required to earn a certificate of completion.
