If you don't get hired right away after the academy, how long does the certification stay valid for?

You don't have to retake the exam every four years. Once active (hired) you in-service training as all you need.
Once you pass the exam you have four years to get hired or you cert expires.
Once you have been hired, if you leave you have four years to get hired again. But if you break is less than 8 years you can apply for an exemption to the Basic academy and take an comparative compliance course (about 80 hours) and then sit for the state exam again.
Think that covers it.

Keep in mind that the academy and state exam makes you "certifiable". Once you get hired, you activate that certification through FDLE. You'll get a nice certificate in the mail from Tallahassee about your activation becoming activated.
