The Pass Guarantee

I’d rather refund you than have you tell friends this didn’t work. That’s not marketing — it’s the whole philosophy. Here’s the policy in plain English, including the part most schools bury: what’s actually covered right now, and exactly what every word in the guarantee means.

First, the Honest Part

The Business & Finance course is still being built. It ships January 31, 2027. So the pass guarantee below describes the policy the course will ship with — not something you can invoke today, because there’s no course to complete yet.

What’s Covered Today

The $97 founding seat. If it’s not useful to you, I refund it in full, for any reason, any time up to 14 days after the course ships (through February 14, 2027). Email me. No form. Once the course ships, your seat is also covered by the pass guarantee below.

The reference book set.

• Before it ships: cancel any time before your set ships for a full refund.
• If something arrives damaged or wrong: email me a photo within 14 days of delivery. I replace it or refund it, and I cover the shipping.
• If you change your mind: send the books back unused — no highlighting, tabs, or writing — within 14 days of delivery. I refund the book price and the sales tax once they arrive. Return shipping is on you.

Anything else digital (like the tab and highlight guide once it ships): full refund within 14 days of purchase, no questions asked.

The Pass Guarantee — When the Course Ships

Complete the course. Fail the exam. Full refund.

That’s the whole policy. No notarized score reports. No “you must buy the tabbed book bundle to qualify.” No 60-day waiting periods. Send me your score sheet, I send your money back.

The terms below don’t add hoops. They just pin down what each of those words means, so neither of us ever has to argue about it.

What it covers

• The Business & Finance course, including founding seats.
• The Business & Finance exam given by Pearson VUE. It’s the same exam whether you’re going for a general, building, or residential license, so the guarantee covers all three.
• You, the person who bought it. It isn’t transferable.

What “complete” means

Before your exam date, your course dashboard shows:

1. Every lesson marked complete, and
2. The practice questions for every lesson attempted.

Attempted, not passed. There’s no practice score you have to hit first. The dashboard records the dates for you, so there’s nothing to prove by hand.

What “fail” means

Your official Pearson VUE score report for Business & Finance shows a score under 70%, and:

• the name on it matches yours,
• the exam date is after the day you completed the course, and
• the exam date is within 12 months of the day your course access started. For founding seats, that clock starts on launch day, January 31, 2027.

How to claim it

Email ethan@floridagcprep.com within 60 days of your exam date, with a photo or scan of the score report. I refund your original payment method within 5 business days.

What you get back

Everything you paid for the course: $197 at the launch price, or $97 for a founding seat. The guarantee doesn’t cover your books, shipping, or the state’s fees. PTI and Pearson VUE don’t refund those to me either.

After a refund

Your call:

• Take the refund. Your course access ends that day.
• Or skip it and keep studying. Your access runs to the end of your access window at no charge, and you can still claim the refund if your next attempt also comes back under 70% inside the windows above.

One refund per person.

What it doesn’t cover

• An exam you take before you’ve completed the course.
• A claim sent more than 60 days after the exam date.
• Contract Administration or Project Management. There’s no course for those yet.

Why I Offer This

Look at the big schools. Plenty of them advertise a “pass guarantee,” but the refund terms require you to retake the course, attend live sessions, pay separately for re-testing, and submit paperwork that would make the DMV proud. That’s not a guarantee — it’s a loyalty program.

I’m a solo operator. I can’t afford unhappy students telling their contractor friends this didn’t work. So the refund policy isn’t a marketing move — it’s how I keep the quality bar high. If the course isn’t good enough to get you through, it shouldn’t be on the market.

Questions

Which courses does this cover?

Business & Finance — it’s the only course so far. If a Contract Administration or Project Management course ever exists, it’ll carry the same terms, and I’ll say so here.

Do I have to retake before asking for a refund?

No. One failed attempt is enough. You don’t have to pay another exam fee to prove anything.

I already failed Business & Finance once. Am I covered?

Yes. What counts is your first attempt after you complete the course. Earlier attempts don’t matter.

What if I never take the exam?

Then the pass guarantee doesn’t apply — you have to sit for the exam to invoke it. The founding-seat refund window and the 14-day refunds above still apply.

Is this going to change?

Maybe eventually, but only after a lot of real results. If it ever does, you keep the terms that were on this page the day you bought. I won’t change them on you.
