What is the limit on classroom hours for continuing education while the license is inactive?

The limit on classroom hours for continuing education while a license is inactive in Florida is indeed 10 hours. This requirement ensures that licensed physical therapist assistants stay engaged with the latest industry practices and knowledge, even while their license is not active.

Continuing education can help prepare practitioners for reactivation of their license by ensuring they remain informed about advancements in the field, regulatory changes, and new therapeutic techniques.

While there are different limits on continuing education depending on the status of the license, the 10-hour limit for inactive status reflects a balance between maintaining a connection to the field without the obligations that come with an active license. This policy helps facilitate a smoother transition back to active status once the physical therapist assistant chooses to reactivate their license.
