Education Requirements for Condominium Association Board Members

Condominium directors appointed or elected on or after July 1, 2024, must complete a four-hour certification within 90 days after being elected or appointed that covers the following topics: milestone inspections, structural integrity reserve studies, elections, record keeping, financial literacy and transparency, levying of fines, and notice and meeting requirements.

Condominium directors appointed or elected prior to July 1, 2024, have until June 30, 2025, to complete the four-hour certification requirement. The certification is valid for seven years and does not have to be retaken during the seven-year period if the director serves without interruption. If the director serves for more than seven years, the certification must be retaken upon expiration of the seventh year. In addition to the certification, and within one year thereof and annually thereafter, directors must complete a one-hour continuing education course relating to any changes made during the past year to Chapter 718, F.S., and the related administrative rules.
