Renewal of funeral director and embalmer licenses.
470.015 Renewal of funeral director and embalmer licenses.--
(1) The department shall renew a funeral director or embalmer license upon receipt of the renewal application and fee set by the board not to exceed $250. The board may prescribe by rule continuing education requirements of up to 12 classroom hours and may by rule establish criteria for accepting alternative nonclassroom continuing education on an hour-for-hour basis, in addition to a board-approved course on communicable diseases that includes the course on human immunodeficiency virus and acquired immune deficiency syndrome required by s. 455.2226, for the renewal of a funeral director or embalmer license. The board may provide for the waiver of continuing education requirements in circumstances that would justify the waiver, such as hardship, disability, or illness. The continuing education requirement is not required after July 1, 1996, for a licensee who is over the age of 75 years if the licensee does not qualify as the sole person in charge of an establishment or facility.
