Certified Family Life Educators (CFLEs) with full certification must submit evidence of 100 hours of continuing education activity every five years to recertify. See the guidelines for CFLE continuing education credit (PDF) for the online recertification process.

Continuing education includes additional academic courses completed; attendance at conferences, seminars, workshops and trainings; and work experiences that are new or different from those included in the original CFLE application, e.g., development and/or teaching of a new course/program.

Where to Earn CFLE Continuing Education Credits

Deadline for Recertification

Continuing education credits are due in the final month of the five year cycle. For example, if you were first approved as a full CFLE in July of 2014, your five year cycle would be July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2019. Your continuing education credits would be due by July 31, 2019. NCFR will send you reminder notices approximately nine months before the credits are due.
