Florida Insurance Adjusters Course

Welcome to InterNACHI's free online "Florida Insurance Adjusters Course." This course is provided by our accredited college at internachi.edu

Goal:

This course aims to help individuals attain the Florida Adjuster License by preparing them for the state examination.

It also assists individuals in obtaining a thorough knowledge of Florida’s laws and rules and an accurate understanding of insurance and practice.  There are mutual reciprocity agreements between states whereby an adjuster holding a license in one state can successfully apply for a license in another state and vice-versa. You may be able to apply for a adjusters license in another state without having first to pass that state’s exam or pre-licensing course.  And, in keeping with InterNACHI's commitment to Continuing Education, this course is open and free to all members and can be taken again and again without limit.

The course includes:

  • 16 InterNACHI® CE credit hours;
  • 138,000 words;
  • photos, graphics, tables, and diagrams;
  • 100-question practice exam;
  • 100-question final exam (drawn from a larger pool);

Some features that make InterNACHI's courses superior to existing continuing education options:

  • The course is free for all InterNACHI members.
  • The course is written in pure XHTML code for quick loading.  The course loads fine on old computers and loads fast, even with dial-up.
  • The course is designed using a hierarchal menu coupled with a sequential page navigation.  This provides the student with the option to easily repeat areas of weakness.
  • The course permits the student to start, stop and restart any part of the course as often as desired.
  • There are a variety of images within the course, including diagrams, illustrations and photos. 
  • The illustrations can be enlarged for clearer viewing by clicking on them.
  • The text is integrated into InterNACHI's Inspector Glossary.  Rolling over blue-colored terms provides their definition.
  • The final exam uses multiple-choice questions that reference the images. 
  • The course's quizzes and final exam have numerous advantages over traditional exam systems:
    1. The course, quizzes and final exam incorporate built-in intelligence which identifies and strengthens each student's unique subject weaknesses.
    2. Not only is each question weighted with regard to score, but each answer is weighted, as well as the correctness of each answer being weighted.
      1. Answers to easy questions are weighted such that the student is penalized, in terms of score, for answering incorrectly, but rewarded modestly for answering correctly.
      2. Answers to difficult questions are weighted such that the student is rewarded, in terms of score, for answering correctly, but not penalized for answering incorrectly.
      3. Answers to questions regarding basic safety, or questions every inspector should know the answer to, are weighted such that the student is severely penalized, in terms of score, for answering incorrectly.
  • Upon passing the final exam, the student can print out a Certificate of Completion which is auto-generated in their own name.

The student's (InterNACHI member's) information is recorded on InterNACHI's servers for membership compliance verification, and automatically logs completion into InterNACHI's online Continuing Education log.
