Important Changes to Education Requirements for Condominium and HOA Board Members


Starting July 1, 2024, new laws introduced by House Bill 1021 and House Bill 1203 will change

the educational requirements for Condominium and Homeowners Association (HOA) Board

Members in Florida. Here's what you need to know about the updated rules.

The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) is dedicated to

helping board members understand their roles and responsibilities under these new regulations.

To support this, DBPR has developed a free 4-hour Board Member Certification Program, which

aligns with the new statutory requirements for both Condominium and HOA board members.

This course will be available on the DBPR website by August 15, 2024, and registered users will

receive an email notification once it's live.

Additionally, DBPR is actively working on the rulemaking process to implement various aspects

of the new legislation, including the requirements for education providers. Guidance on the

process for educating Condominium and HOA board members will be released later this fall. For

the latest information and updates, you can visit the Florida Administrative Register.

Key Requirements for Condominium Association Board Members:

● For Directors appointed or elected before July 1, 2024: You have until June 30,

2025, to complete the new educational curriculum.

● For Directors appointed or elected on or after July 1, 2024: You must complete a 4-

hour educational curriculum within 90 days of being elected or appointed.

Key Requirements for HOA Board Members:

● For Directors elected or appointed before July 1, 2024: You must complete the

educational curriculum within four years, provided you serve on the board continuously

during this period.

● For Directors appointed or elected on or after July 1, 2024: You must complete the

required education within 90 days of your election or appointment.

These changes are designed to ensure that all board members are well-informed and equipped

to serve their communities effectively. Stay tuned for further updates and be sure to take

advantage of the resources provided by DBPR to meet these new requirements.

Thank you to Wright & Casey for passing along the info!
