Question & Answer

Review the question and all answer choices

A

14 hours

Option A (14 hours) is incorrect as this represents Florida's biennial continuing education requirement for subsequent renewals, not the post-license requirement for the first renewal. This option confuses different education phases in an agent's career.

B

28 hours

Option B (28 hours) is incorrect as this doesn't correspond to any standard Florida real estate education requirement. Students might mistakenly calculate half of the pre-licensing hours or confuse it with another state's requirements.

C

45 hours

Correct Answer
D

63 hours

Option D (63 hours) is incorrect as this represents the number of hours required for Florida's initial pre-licensing education, not the post-licensing requirement. Students often confuse these two distinct education requirements.

Why is this correct?

The correct answer is C (45 hours) because Florida Real Estate Commission (FREC) rules specifically mandate that sales associates complete 45 hours of post-license education before their first license renewal. This requirement is separate from the initial 63-hour pre-licensing course and applies only to the first renewal period.
