Certification requirements are complex; therefore it is strongly recommended that all students changing specializations, seeking transfer of credit, or attempting to meet specific renewal or certification requirements, speak with an Academic Advisor before registering for classes. Advising services are available by telephone, email or by appointment.

*Appointments are available at the FSEHS in North Miami Beach and at the Student Educational Centers (except for Jamaica and Southwest Florida centers).
