Florida COVID CE Change 2023-2025

Florida COVID CE Change 2023-2025

COVID change that ends 8/31/25.

You can take the 12 "live" hours through distance learning with an instructor still present or providing hands-on demonstration. None of our courses meet this clarification; therefore, you can still only take 12 out of 24 hours with us. Link to change.

"The 12 hours live, in-class can be done outside of a live class; however, the class must still be approved in the "Live - Relevant to Massage Therapy" category. We do NOT offer this type of course. Starting September 1, 2025, everything returns to normal with 12 hours needing to be live, in a classroom with an instructor present."

NOTICE: Florida Only. None of the Company Courses are considered "LIVE" in reference to Florida License Renewal. "LIVE" means you generally have to sit in a classroom with hands-on training for 12 hours. "LIVE" means something you can touch and is tangible. CE Massage courses are approved by most entities, and you can take 12 hours with CEMassage® online for your FL renewal (in specific categories for FL), just not the other 12 hours that are required in the "LIVE" category.
