There are a few requirements to maintaining the Certified Family Life Educator (CFLE) credential:

• All CFLEs, both provisional and full, must pay the CFLE annual maintenance fee. Scholarships are available for the annual fee to CFLEs who demonstrate financial need.
• Full CFLEs must submit evidence of continuing education credits every five years.
• Provisional certification is available for up to five years. As soon as a provisional CFLE has earned sufficient work experience in Family Life Education they can upgrade to full certification.
