Focusing on your Education

Without your medical license, you cannot practice medicine and provide the patient care you have dedicated your career to delivering. Nothing is more important for a physician than keeping your medical license up to date.

That is why the FMA Center for Education’s sole focus is ensuring that only qualified physicians with a proven commitment to providing the highest-quality care are licensed to practice medicine in Florida. FMA members, have access to the state-mandated CME courses you need to keep your medical license up to date, plus 100 free and discounted online courses. All courses directly provided by the FMA are reported to CE Broker on your behalf to save you time and money on meeting your licensure requirements.
