Insurance Pre-License Courses


To take the Illinois Insurance Producer Exams and obtain the Illinois Insurance Producers license, Illinois law requires 20 hours of pre-license education for each line of insurance. 7 ½ hours must be classroom or live, on-line webinar. The other 12 ½ hours can be by self-study. Each ABRC pre-license course provides a highly structured 12 ½ hour self-study program which includes both in-book and on-line practice tests to assure each student both understands and remembers the information to provide each student their best chance possible of passing all of their exams on their first attempt.

  • “I am delighted to tell you both that between April 19th and May 16th, after completing both training seminars, I was able to pass my Property/Casualty and Life/Health examinations on the first try! In fact, I just completed the application for my license. I am very grateful for your support during the training process, and I look forward to a prosperous career working in the insurance industry.”

  • “I would just like to say that you had prepared me wonderfully for taking the Life and Health Insurance License Exam for the State of Illinois on December 9th and 10th. Thanks to your teaching method and materials provided. I felt confident taking the exams and was not as “surprised” to have passed the exams on the first attempt. I will definitely recommend the ABRC for all insurance examination and renewal needs for my company. Thank you for your dedication to the trade.“

    Jeremy Jones, Health Alliance Medical Plans, Urbana, IL

  • "Just a note to thank you, again, for the fabulous job of providing IL P&C and Life & Health pre-licensing course training. I am happy to report that I passed all 4 Exams and feel I couldn’t have done it without your courses of instruction! Being a veteran insurance guy I quickly came to realize when taking the Exams that without your instruction I may have chosen many wrong answers that would have been based on my general insurance industry knowledge, instead of the carefully constructed course programs you presented. Beyond the actual course curriculum, your intuitive instructions fully prepared the attendees who paid attention during the 2-day classes I participated in for the nuanced questions actually posed in the Exams. You are exactly right in telling all the folks to pay particular attention to each word contained in Exam questions and to not be taken off guard by “reverse” or “negative” questions/choices. Well done – Bravo"
