Difference between Competency Exams and CEU Assessment:
In order to use child care training courses to meet the Department of Children
and Families mandated training requirements for licensure, individuals must pass
a corresponding competency exam. Information about the competency examsmay be found at www.myflorida.com/childcare - select “Training
Requirements” and “Competency Exams.”
In order to use child care training courses for either Staff or Director Credential
Renewals, individuals must earn CEUs. In order to earn CEUs, an individual
must Attend 100% of training course (online or instructor-based), prior to
completing the assessment, complete the training courseevaluation/satisfaction
survey, and pass the CEU Assessment for specific training course with a score of
at least 80% or higher. Course attendance must be completed prior to taking
the CEU Assessment. CEUs will not be earned if the CEU Assessment is
completed prior to the attendance requirement being met.
For Department of Children and Families courses, after an individual
completes a course,either online or instructor-based, a “Go to Assessment”
button for the course will appear under the “Earn CEUs” button on the Child Care
Training Transcript. The “Go to Assessment” button will be available for 60 days
from the date the course completes. If the assessment is not passed within the
60-day time period, the individual will lose the opportunity to earn CEUs for the
specific course.Each individual will have three (3) opportunities to pass the CEU
Assessment within the 60 day time period. Once a score of 80% is met, the
CEUs will be issued and appear on the Child Care Training Transcript. If the
assessment is not passed three (3) attempts, the individual will lose the
opportunity to earn CEUs for the specific course.
For Department of Education – Office of EarlyLearning courses, the CEU
Assessment is within the course rather than through the “Earn CEUs” button on
the Child Care Training Transcript. In order to complete the course, an individual
must pass the assessment.
