# Florida dental assistant online CE requirements

Answer: Dental assistants in Florida: No CE requirement — Florida does not license or register dental assistants generally, and no CE is required (radiography/expanded-function certificates are training-based, not CE-hour based). Online/live-course signal from Dentovio's sourced CE notes: CPR/BLS: current BLS-level CPR certification required (must be a LIVE course; in addition to CE hours). LIVE/SELF-STUDY CAP: no stated maximum on self-study hours (courses may be live, interactive distance learning, or self-study via board-approved providers). Confirm the current dental assistant live, webinar, correspondence, home-study, self-study, provider, and audit rules with the Florida dental board before enrolling.
