    Renewal Steps

    Completing Your Florida Post Licensing Requirement Can be Easy!

    "Whether holding an active or inactive Real Estate license, the Florida Real Estate Commission requires that all licensees complete a FREC-approved post-licensing course consisting of at least 45-hours, prior to the expiration of the initial sales associate license."

    The good news is that you can complete this requirement virtually with our on-demand online courses. It can be from the comfort of your home, your office or wherever you have a computer with an internet connection.

    Step One: Enroll in Post Licensing Course

    Your Real Estate License will have a deadline printed on it by which you must complete your Post Licensing Requirement. Failure to complete this by the specified date will cause your license to become Null and Void.

    We recommend enrolling in our Post Licensing course at least 90 days prior to your deadline, as this will allow you to take your time with the material. This will keep you from feeling rushed and will give you better chances of passing your exam.

    Step Two: Complete Course

    Once you have completed all the content modules in the course, our course includes practice examinations that will help you prepare for the end of course exam. Pay close attention to the topics that you are struggling with and review the corresponding sections in the course prior to taking your final exam.

    This is a great opportunity to take advantage of our Free Instructor Support that is available for one year after your enrollment date. Just give us a call or send us email to get in touch with a state certified instructor who will help you better understand the material.

    Your success is our success. Our mission is to provide you with the best education experience possible.

    Step Three: Complete End of Course Exam

    Once you feel that you are prepared, you can begin the end of course examination. Each of the three modules have a 50 question, multiple choice end of course exam. A passing score is 75% or higher.

    If by chance you do not achieve at least a 70% don't sweat it, you're covered by our 1-Year Retake Guarantee. The Florida Real Estate Commission no longer requires a waiting period for post licensing exams. You will have 1 additional attempt to pass. If you do not pass, you will be required to retake the course in full. This is at no charge as long as you are within 1-year of your registration date.

    Once you have passed the end of course exams for each of the three modules, you can pat yourself on the back because the hard part is over! There is no state examination for the post licensing requirement.

    Step Four: Pay State Renewal Fee

    Once you have successfully completed the course, we will automatically submit your information to the state electronically. We will electronically send you a copy of your completion certificate, as well as mail you a copy with your diploma.

    The last step is paying the renewal fee to the state. You can pay online, over the phone or by mail.

    The following link will take you directly to the Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation Website where you can pay your renewal fee.

    That's it! If you have completed all four steps you have now successfully completed your Florida Sales Associate Post Licensing Requirement.
