Do I Have to Take Exams?

For every 15 hours of pre-licensing education you must take an proctored 25 question closed book exam and pass it with a score of 75% or better.

What are My Options for Taking Exams? 

The IDFPR requires proctored exams, exams taken in front of a representative of the school or approved proctor, so proper procedures are followed and to verify your identity.  You have different options depending on the type of courses you sign up for.  If you take a class you will take your exam at the end of the class.  If you do a combination of classroom and self study, you can prepare yourself for the self study exam before you come to class and after the class take all your exams.  If you do self study courses only you have 4 options: with a group of 5 or more in office testing, set up a proctored exam(s), come to our office by appointment, or come to any of our regularly scheduled classes, at any location, and take your exams when we give that class their exam.

What is a Proctored Exam? 

Having your exams administered by an approved person that is not employed or associated with SURE WIN INC.  For example, set up a person in your office to be the proctor, when ready they will get the materials necessary to conduct the exams, so you can test at your convenience.  For more information on how to set up a proctor click "Proctor"

What if I Fail an Exam? 

Upon passing a CE exam(s), your successful completion will be reported to the IDFPR and you will receive Certificates of Completion. Upon passing a pre-licensing exam(s), your successful completion will be reported to AMP.

Do I Need CE Certificates to Renew My License? 

NO. CE Certificates of Completion are for your records only.  You DO NOT send them in with your renewal.  If you have completed all your required continuing education you can send in your renewal immediately, even BEFORE you receive your Certificates of Completion.
