Parenting & Divorce Class FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions for Online Parenting and Divorce

Is a parenting class required for divorce in Florida?
Florida Statute 61.21 says both parties in a divorce involving minor children or a paternity action are required to take a Parent Education and Family Stabilization course. This must be completed before the court issues a final judgment on the divorce.

There is only a One Time Fee for your course. This is not a recurring subscription. The one time fee allows you to access all the course materials and your certificate download for 30 days from your enrollment date.
How long is the Parenting and Divorce Course?
The Parenting and Divorce Class takes about 4 hours to complete. The material is engaging and thought provoking while at the same time easy to understand and apply. We won't go so far as to say it is fun, but you'll likely find the time seems much shorter than the four hours required to complete the course.
