Q.01Who needs the 28-hour reactivation course?
Florida real estate sales associates whose license has been
involuntarily inactive for more than 12 months but less than 24 months. If your license has been inactive 24 months or more, you'll need to retake the full
63-Hour Pre-License course and the state exam — the 28-hour reactivation no longer qualifies.
Q.02How fast can I be back to active?
As fast as 2–3 days if you're motivated. The course is self-paced — finish over a weekend and pass the final. We report your completed hours to DBPR electronically (well inside the state's reporting window) and send you the certificate. From there, find a sponsoring broker, submit DBPR paperwork, and you're back to selling.
Q.03What's the difference between voluntarily and involuntarily inactive?
Voluntarily inactive: you maintain your license by completing 14-hour CE every 2 years. You can reactivate by completing CE and notifying DBPR.
Involuntarily inactive: your license lapsed because you didn't complete CE on time or your broker affiliation ended without re-association. To return to active status, you need this 28-hour course (if within 12–24 months) or to retake the entire pre-license course (if 24+ months).
Q.04Is there a final exam?
Yes — Florida requires an end-of-course exam with a passing score of 70%. It's 100 multiple-choice questions with a 3-hour limit, taken right in our online portal — no proctor appointment, no webcam. Don't pass? Re-enroll free with us — no second payment.
Q.05How do my hours get to DBPR?
We report your completed hours to DBPR electronically, promptly after you finish and well inside the state's reporting window — so your reactivation credit posts to your license record. You'll get your certificate for your own records too.
Q.06Do I need a sponsoring broker to reactivate?
Yes. Even after completing this course, your license stays inactive until you submit DBPR reactivation paperwork that includes a sponsoring broker. South Florida brokerages hiring now are on our

Q.07What's your refund policy?
Full refund within 30 days if you've completed no more than 50% of the course. Beyond that window, we don't refund — but your enrollment doesn't expire. Come back when you're ready.
