It all depends on the sealer you used! I use a product called StableCrete that penetrates into the grout joints to waterproof them without leaving a film. Ready for light traffic in four hours. The Grout is what you seal with a ceramic install and not the ceramic!

How long should you wait before you seal concrete?
AnswerTypical concrete takes 28 days (4 weeks) to cure. Prior to the 28 days concrete still has moisture in it that weakens the strength of the concrete. If you seal it prior to 28 days there is a chance you will be sealing in some of that moisture and hence weakening the integrity of the concrete. Another more common problem that occurs when you seal in the moisture is you can see white cloudy bloches which is really the reaction of the moisture and sealer. This prevents a strong bond for the sealer and the sealer can peal up. Ok, all that said, the 28 days really is condition dependant. If you poured your concrete in the middle of dry summer then 14 days should be the minimum amount of time you should wait. After you seal the concrete (depends on conditions and sealer product) you will typically want to give the sealer 1 day prior to walking on it and 48 hours after application before driving on it. Again depends on type of sealer (ie. epoxy...). concretenetwork.com has a lot of good info as well. Good luck.

How long after pouring concrete do you apply sealer?
Depending on what kind of sealer you use, the concrete should be completely dry and firm enough to walk on. However, I know of at least one concrete sealer (Concrete Treat) that can be applied immediately after the concrete has been placed -- with no wait at all for curing. Check out the products as you go and see what might work best for you. See the attached link.
