Frequently Asked Questions

What is the primary design consideration of an OLT course: OLT courses are designed to meet the needs of our students. We use the minimum technology necessary to transfer the maximum content to the largest number of student in the most effective manner possible.

How long does the online Review & PassPrep Course take to complete? With over 800 questions and 4,000 interactive screens it takes between 8 and 15 hours just to click through all the right answer screens. If you follow our study recommendations, after completing a pre-licensing course, you should click straight through the online Review & PassPrep Course to determin where your strengths and weaknesses are. Then concentrate on your weakest areas.

I live in California, Texas, or some other state. Can I take the OnLine Training Insurance Review & PassPrep Course? Absolutely, yes you can. OLT has a generic Insurance Agent Licensing Course designed for delivery in all 50 states and areas of the USA. Your local regulations (state laws) may vary. But, the content of over 95% of OLT course will be directly applicable to you. Rules and regulation sections are being prepared for all states. Florida, California and Texas sections have been developed.

Why buy an online course from OLT, when there are other options. In most states it is mandatory that a want-to-be insurance agent pass a state approved pre-licensing insurance agent course. Normally 40 hours in length and taught from a specific study manual. The OLT Review & PassPrep Course is designed to meet a student's need for additional training.

So the answer to the why question boils down to "because you feel the need for more" than the 40 hour pre-license course. The more important question, now that you have decided to buy more training, is what should you buy.

OLT's course cost more than $10,000 to develop. It has been valued in marketing studies as worth between $75 and $150. One company in Texas valued the course at $750. It is much more than a simple series of practice questions. At a technical level it follows a cognitive learning model that directly guides you through an interactive drill and practice sequence that is about 2.3 times more efficient than simple questions and answers.

Does that mean you can learn the material in half the time? Probably not. But you will learn it faster. And you will perform better on the state exam.

Pass Rates. The OnLine Training, Life, Health and Annuities Insurance Agent Review & PassPrep Course currently has a Pass Rate of 97%. OLT tracks pass rates. If a students fails a state examination, the student is required to FAX the results of the examination report to OLT. The report indicates number of questions per content area, and number answered correctly. OLT actively revises its online Review & PassPrep Courses to reflect current examination practices. Fewer than three ou of every one hundred students fail state examinations after using the Redding Method and completing the online Review & PassPrep Course.

How much faster will you learn with the Redding Method? The answer is, you should learn between 20 to 40 percent faster, and you should be able to learn more and retain the information better. During the beta testing my ten year old daughter practiced with 25 questions. She was able to score 100 percent right within 20 minutes.

How much better will you perform on the state exam? Between 5 and 30 percent better. Of course results will vary. If you routinely score above the 90th percentile on such exams you will experience something closer to a 5 percent improvement. But if you normally perform closer to the 60th percentile, then you should experience something closer to the 20 percent improvement.

How do I control what I study? The OLT Review & PassPrep Course includes a course map that permits you to study only the material you need to study. Each of the 27 chapters of the Dearborn Study manual are covered. Each question references the page it was taken from in the study manual. It should also be noted that most state's 40 hour pre-licensing courses follow a similar sequence of instruction. However, the state exam in Florida does not follow the book. Instead, it is broken down into two sections of four units each. The OLT Review & PassPrep Course is structured similar to the state examination. Using our Review & PassPrep Course should leave you better prepared for the state exam and you should be more comfortable taking the exam.

How long does the Review & PassPrep Course take? It depends on how well you know the material, and whether you wish to learn Life, Health and Annuities. If you spend one minute on each question, and go through all 800+ questions, it will take you nearly 14 hours.

I am not from Florida. Can I use the OLT Review & PassPrep Course? Certainly! You can consider the OLT Insurance Agent Review & PassPrep Course to be a 90% solution for those that need to learn material associated with Life, Health and Annuities.

Just curious is there a reason why these questions are so easy? I mean the answers sometimes are so obvious. Yes there is. First, we design the front end of any section to be easy in order to remove test taking anxiety. Second, the actual test questions are not that tough. We could make the answers tricky or more difficult. But to what purpose? Our design calls for exposing you to only questions and answers that make sense. Our content is structured so that all possible answers are taken from the same chapter and are related to the same content. We sequence the Review & PassPrep Course exactly the same way the state examinations are sequenced. Our goal is to make the preparation process as effective, and as easy as we can. If it seems easy, well, that is because it doesn't have to be hard.

So, again, why should you or anyone consider buying an OLT Review & PassPrep Course?

a. You feel the need for more training and the OLT Review & PassPrep Course offers high quality additional training.

b. You want to save time and the OLT Review & PassPrep Course is a very efficient way to study this material.

c. You want to improve your performance on the state exam and OLT's course offers performance improvement.

d. You want to practice responding to question in the same sequence they will appear on state exams and OLT's course follows the structure of the Florida (and possibly other) state exam.

Why don't you just tell me how much it costs? The course is priced to sell nationally for $75 (Special, $49.95). Insurance companies and other training companies may purchase multiple courses, in blocks of 10, 100, 200, and 500, at a significant reduction in price.

So it becomes a question of what you want to buy and how much you want to pay. If price is your primary consideration then you can purchase an online series of questions and answers for less.

But, if your time is of value to you, you want to optimize the learning of this material, and you want to be able to sit for the state exam with great confidence of passing the first time, then you are invited to the OLT Insurance Agent Review & PassPrep Course.
