Question 1

Who writes Instant CE courses?

Question 6

Are Instant CE courses approved by my licensing board?

Accepted Answer

We strive to keep our Board Approvals list as accurate and up to date as possible. Because each state licensing board has its own rules and requirements, approval standards can vary.

We encourage you to review our Board Approvals page to confirm whether your state board accepts our courses. If you are unsure or have specific questions about your licensure requirements, we recommend contacting your state board directly for final verification.

Question 7

How do I get my completion certificate? How long does it take?

Once you complete all sections of the course and pass the final test, your completion certificate is available immediately for download.

Your certificate is also permanently stored in your account, so you can access and download it anytime you need it in the future.

Question 8

Does Instant CE automatically report CE completion to CE Broker?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Instant CE automatically reports course completions to CE Broker for state boards that utilize the CE Broker reporting system.

You can review our Board Approvals page to confirm whether your specific state board participates in CE Broker and whether we report for your license type. The Board Approvals page also outlines how frequently completions are reported.

If your board does not use CE Broker, you can download your certificate immediately and submit it directly to your board if required.

Question 9

What score do I need to pass the test? What if I don’t pass?

Accepted Answer

You must score 70% or higher to successfully pass a course and earn your certificate.

If you don’t pass on your first attempt, no worries — you can retake the test as many times as needed at no additional cost until you achieve a passing score.
