Florida nurse practitioners are required to complete a biannual continuing education course called, “The Safe and Effective Prescription of Controlled Substances.” This important three hour course is timely for nurse practitioners as Florida approved DEA licensing authority for advanced practice providers in 2017. The course is required for all nurse practitioners, even if they do not have a DEA license.

“This was a well-written course with helpful course materials and exam items that focused on the main points as opposed to asking us to recall odd statistics, etc. Very well-written and enjoyable – helpful for practice as I am fairly new to having a DEA number in the State of Florida.
