Feedback from Florida brokers who renewed on time

Real brokers. First renewal handled.

  • Sixty hours in your first year as a broker, while opening an office, is brutal. Short units at night are what made it survivable.
    Alec T., Florida broker in Tampa Alec T. FL broker · Tampa
  • This is the course that taught me how to run a brokerage, not just how to pass a test.
    Nadia H., Florida broker in Boca Raton Nadia H. FL broker · Boca Raton
  • The trust account and supervision material changed how I set up my office. I wish I'd taken it before I opened.
    Curtis D., Florida broker in Gainesville Curtis D. FL broker · Gainesville
  • I almost missed my first renewal as a broker. Finished the 60 hours with two weeks to go and Premier filed it for me.
    Regina S., Florida broker in Daytona Beach Regina S. FL broker · Daytona Beach
  • Hiring and supervising associates was the part nobody prepared me for. Those units were worth the whole course.
    Roberto Q., Florida broker in Lakeland Roberto Q. FL broker · Lakeland
  • Straightforward, current, no filler. As a broker my time is the expensive part.

Florida Broker Post-License Course Requirements - Florida Real Estate Commission School ID #ZH1003192

Premier Courses is approved by the Florida Real Estate Commission (FREC) to provide the 60-hour Broker Post-License course required for all newly licensed Florida brokers. Premier Courses' school ID is ZH1003192.

The course covers advanced brokerage topics — brokerage management, operations, and the responsibilities that come with running a real estate office — and concludes with the FREC-required end-of-course exam.

All 60 hours must be completed before your first broker license renewal deadline.

Final Exam Information

The end-of-course final exam is multiple choice. Per Florida Real Estate Commission rules, you must score 75% or higher to pass.

If you fail the final exam, FREC requires you to wait at least 30 days from the date of the original exam before retesting. You may retest a maximum of one time within one year of the original exam, and you'll be given a different form of the exam. If you fail the second attempt, you'll need to repeat the course before testing again.

Completion Requirement Policy

The course must be completed within six months of registration. If you are unable to complete the course within the six month period, Premier Courses offers extensions for an additional fee.

Keep in mind that regardless of your course access period, Florida requires all broker post-licensing hours to be completed before your first license renewal deadline.

Online Course Identification Requirements

Before taking your end-of-course final exam, you'll be asked to verify your identity with a current government-issued photo identification, such as:

  1. A current Florida driver's license.
  2. A current identification card issued by a state or U.S. government agency.
  3. A current passport.

The name on your identification must match the name on your course registration.

Reporting Your Course Completion

When you complete the course and pass the final exam, you'll receive a certificate of completion and your course completion is reported electronically to the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR).

You can verify your education record at any time through your DBPR online account at www.myfloridalicense.com.
