Whether court-ordered for divorce or custody, or referred by a caseworker, our Co-Parenting and Parenting Classes meet every court and agency requirement.
The Short Answer: As Long as You Need
Every court writes its own length requirement, and no two write it the same way, so the real answer to how long a parenting class is depends on the order in your hand. Here is what matters more: our class is 15 short lessons, completed entirely online at your own pace, and because it is self-paced with a certificate generated the moment you finish, you can enroll and complete everything the same day.
Parents complete our class under every version of the requirement, and what the court receives is the same in every case: a certificate of completion for an approved class, verified in seconds.
How Parenting Class Length Works
Every Court Writes Its Own Number
Parenting class orders name all kinds of lengths, and no two jurisdictions agree on one. Parents enroll in our class under every version of the requirement, from brief seminars to programs described in weeks, and complete it for their case.
Your Certificate Shows Completion
The certificate courts and agencies receive carries your legal name, the class completed, your completion date, and instant verification. It carries no hour count. What a court verifies is that you completed an approved class, and ours is approved by courts in all 50 states.
Self-Paced Means Your Schedule
Our class is 15 short lessons. Take them in one sitting or spread them across a week. Progress saves automatically, so life can interrupt without costing you anything, and you can enroll and finish the same day.
The Florida Requirement
Florida orders divorcing parents to complete a Parent Education and Family Stabilization course under Florida Statute 61.21. Our class meets the requirement, is approved by the Florida Department of Children and Families, and covers all eight components Florida mandates, in all 67 counties.
Florida Class DetailsClass Length Questions, Answered
How long is a court-ordered parenting class?
There is no single answer: every court writes its own length into its orders, and no two jurisdictions agree. What courts verify is completion of an approved class. Ours is self-paced across 15 short lessons, you can enroll and finish the same day, and your certificate is generated the moment you finish.
Can I finish the class in one day?
Yes. The class is fully self-paced and available around the clock, so you can enroll and finish the same day. The certificate is generated the moment you finish, which matters when a hearing is close.
Does the certificate show how many hours the class took?
The certificate shows your legal name, the class completed, your completion date, your court information, and a code the court verifies in seconds. Courts and agencies confirm completion of an approved class, and that is exactly what the certificate proves.
My order names a specific number of hours. Does this class work for me?
Yes. Enroll in the class your order names, Parenting or Co-Parenting, and complete it. Parents under every version of the length requirement take our class and file the certificate with their case. If your order names a high-conflict or facilitated program, we offer a high-conflict co-parenting class for exactly that situation.
Do I have to finish the class in one sitting?
No. Stop mid-lesson whenever you need to and pick up exactly where you left off, on any device. The pace is yours to arrange.
Is there a deadline to finish once I start?
You have a full 12 months of access from the day you enroll, which is far more time than any court deadline allows. You can finish the same day you start.
