The Florida Education Association (FEA) is a statewide federation of teacher and education workers' labor unions in the US state of Florida. Its 145,000 members make it the largest union in the state. It is a merged affiliate of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) and the National Education Association (NEA), and is a member of the AFL–CIO.

The FEA was founded in 1886. After leading the nation's first statewide teachers' strike^[1] in 1968, the FEA split into two separate federations in 1974. The two groups merged again in 2000.

^ The claim of first statewide teachers' strike in the U.S. is also made by the Utah Education Association: "Teachers: Showdown in Utah". Time. May 24, 1963.
