Performance Programs Company’s newly minted Florida Real Estate Continuing Education Course (the “FLA.CE” Program) is a 14-hour course specifically designed for Florida real estate licensees and for their fulfillment of Florida’s real estate continuing education requirements. As such, the course carefully complies with FREC requirements and specification for content coverage, organization length, format, and final examinations. The thrust of the course’s content is to - provide a comprehensive yet terse review of key concepts and principles undergirding Florida brokerage and management practices - emphasize how to develop and maintain practical yet widely-accepted standards of professional real estate practice as codified by the Realtors Code of Ethics and FREC-promulgated regulations - highlight the more action-oriented aspects of brokerage practice as opposed to legal concepts, including risk mitigation, the basics of managing transactions, pricing property, completing contracts, financial analysis, closing, and, throughout, making conscientious and transparent disclosures. In fulfilling these course content benchmarks, we have tried to keep the topic summaries clear, simple and relevant. Ultimately, we hope they will serve the ongoing purpose of keeping you abreast of the industry’s newest trends, developments, and new evolutions. Important note: The FLA.CE Program needs to be purchased through an approved Florida real estate school to receive credit. Buying and completing the FLA.CE book purchased here on Amazon will NOT earn you credit. Our FLA.CE text resource is to be in used in conjunction with a school's FLA.CE course.

Florida Real Estate Postlicensing for Sales Associates (FREPSA) is 45-hour review and applied principles coursebook for newly-licensed sales associates beginning their real estate careers in Florida. It is designed to satisfy your one-time postlicense requirement as a sales associate actively practicing real estate in Florida. FREPSA is used with approved sales associate postlicensing courses throughout Florida. There are three principal themes underlying the content of our FREPSA course. First is to give you a key-point review of the most critical laws and regulations impacting your current practice: license-related regulations, brokerage relationships review, disclosures and professional practices that form the foundations of professional practice. This review additionally includes a brief review of rules and regulations framing compliant practices in advertising, fair housing and brokerage operations. Second, we wanted to give you a deeper exposure to more advanced, transaction-related brokerage practices that are critical to becoming a successful practitioner: market analysis; pricing; investment principles, construction knowledge, obtaining and marketing listings, and managing the pre-closing period. Finally, we wanted to present several additional perspectives on real estate practice that can add valuable new dimensions to your future engagements in real estate practice: property management, real estate-related insurance, and risk management. And, for students who appreciate a brush-up in real estate math, we cap off the program with a comprehensive review of transaction-related math formulas and calculations.
