You have access to the Florida Parent Education Course for 120 days from your enrollment date. The 120-day access period is separate from the 45-day legal deadline set by Florida courts.
Understanding your access window for the Florida Parent Education and Family Stabilization Course is important for meeting court requirements. The course access period and the legal deadline are not the same. Knowing the difference helps you stay on track and avoid missing important deadlines.
How Course Access and Legal Deadlines Work
Your access to the Florida Parent Education and Family Stabilization Course lasts 120 days from the day you enroll. This access period is set by Driving Logic and is separate from the legal deadline. The Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) requires that you complete the course within 45 days of filing (if you are the petitioner) or being served (if you are the respondent). For more information about legal requirements, visit the Florida Department of Children and Families website: the Florida Department of Children and Families.
What Happens When Your Access Expires
After 120 days from your enrollment date, your access to the Florida Parent Education Course will expire. If you have not finished the course by then, you will need to re-enroll and start again. Missing the 45-day legal deadline can affect your court case, so it is important to complete the course and submit your certificate on time.
Tips for Staying on Track
Log in regularly to review modules and track your progress. Do not wait until your 120-day access period is almost over, as the legal deadline comes much sooner. If you are close to your legal deadline or have questions about your access, contact your attorney or the course provider for help.
