Nancy at Lytespeed is awesome. She's been super helpful with licensing for our new team members over the past 11 years. Nancy is always there when we need her, and she makes everything so easy for us. Thank you for being awesome, Nancy! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for great support with licensing. read more

Thank you Lytespeed for all your help! All your resources & support made it easy for me obtain my Agent's license on the first try. You guys have reminded me of what true customer service looks like!! They were kind, patient and immediately available when I needed them.. I wouldn't go anywhere else!! Thanks again! read more

LyteSpeed helped me pass the first time!! Thank you!! I had originally signed up with a different school for my life pre-licensing classes, however, the material was extremely boring and confusing. I contacted them and asked for a refund, which they denied but I still couldn't get my self to study their material. So I singed up with LyteSpeed the material was clear, organized and easy to understand, the videos were of great help. Thank you!! read more

A wonderful learning experience which I am very grateful for, and thoroughly recommend to anyone pursuing a Property & Casualty or Life & Health licensing course. I struggled concentrating using just the text books alone, and found the in-person technique to be ideal for my requirements. The Instructors - Mick and Mary - make understanding definitions and the course content simple and straightforward, and include great 'real life' examples to help remember it all. The location is easy to reach, has plenty of local options for lunch and there is heaps of free parking behind the classroom. UPDATE: October 13th 2018. I returned to the Classroom last week for the LyteSpeed Life, Accident and Health course and passed my Exam last night. I can't advocate the classroom sessions enough; they are the best way to learn the material, the best way to understand the key concepts and all joined together with real life examples to help remember it. Go ahead and call Leanne - she's friendly, helpful and will get you registered quickly. Good luck! read more

Wow. Lytespeed is horrible! Since the end of December 2011 until now beginning of February, Lytespeed's online website really sucks. Their website/server has gone down 2 times when I wanted to study online, but this is just soooo inconvenient!! In addition to their horrible failing website, their customer service is rather unprofessional as well. I've called them a few times, & they don't speak eloquently. One time I called in to ask whether they have any guarantee about their online courses that "if you take our course, we will guarantee that you pass on the first time around" (I think it's prelicensingexam.com that guarantees that or they'll pay for you to take the test the 2nd time around). So when I asked the lady that question, she said, "No, we can't guarantee that. Can I guarantee that you won't have a migraine on the day of your test? No." Wow. She has the audacity to sound so hostile and rude to a customer like that? WTH. I really don't recommend this site nor their services to anyone! Their customer service is very poor. read more

LyteSpeed Learning - Look at that typo! x| - Specialty Schools Near Me - Moorpark, California

See all

Don't look any further! I did a few weeks of research trying to find the right pre licensing for me and Lytespeed was it! I took both the Property/Casualty and Life/Health and I passed both exams on the first try. Their online test exams and online modules made it even better so that when I wasn't in the class, I could still choose to study as much as possible. Mick and Mary are amazing instructors and always have a story that goes along with what they are teach which makes it easier to understand how to apply the information. Someone is always available to answer your questions and the book and online materials are top notch Everyone in the Lytespeed office wants to see you succeed and if you really apply yourself, pay attention in class and study at home you'll pass the exam! If you live far, its definitely worth the drive! read more

My experience at lyte speed was amazing, you will be treated like family. I passed my P&C test first time with a 75% within a week of course completion. There exam prep materials are very similar to the actual test, watch the videos, do the test, learn the terms/jargon and you will pass. read more

I am grateful I selected LyteSpeed Learning to pass my CA Life, Accident and Health Insurance exam. I passed on my first attempt with a high score thanks to the excellent prep book (which I read twice in it's entirety) and LyteSpeed's online learning activities/sample tests (I completed 100% of all tests, flash cards and instructor videos) Excellent customer service when I had a question. THANK YOU MICK & TEAM! ***I did not attend any live classes due to unavailability because of Covid 19. read more

I've been using their online CE courses for the past 14 years. Nancy was super helpful with some hiccups I had and I couldn't be happier with their customer service. Wish there were more employees like her in every industry. read more

Took this for my Life & Health license with the Deluxe in-class package. True to their word, I passed the first time! It's intensive and not everything you learn is needed, but does provide a great, judge-free space to absorb knowledge. Too bad they don't offer Securities, but would definitely recommend this to anyone, and make sure to take it in class, in person. Not only will you pass the exam (with your own hard work), but you'll also get funny stories and advice from great teachers! read more

I can recommend LyteSpeed Learning for insurance training. The cost for the class was less than other places I researched and the course material was more than adequate to prep for the actual test. The course material includes a work book and also online courses for the mandatory session and test prep sessions. Anytime I had a question I would email or call and the staff was always knowledgeable and readily available. read more

If you are planning on joining the insurance industry, "Lytespeed" is the way to go!! I usually don't write reviews, but if I can help someone choose an outstanding online course that would guarantee you to pass, it would definitely be Lytespeed!! Nancy & Ann, were extremely helpful in helping me choose the write course, and they were spot on. I passed the exam the first time I took it!! read more

Mick and Mary are very professional. They are very knowledgeable , interactive and humorous. They made me confident that Insurance was my next career move. My experience at lyteSpeed was amazing, you will be treated like family. Lytespeed is where you want to go is the best school in the san fernando valley. Thank you Mick & Mary for your support. May God continue to bless you. read more

Just took their Life Insurance Prelicensing Course and they were so helpful...passed on the first try! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I just used Lytespeed for a licensing exam. I was referred by a colleague and didn't look around online for other virtual learning courses, I just jumped right in. My background is very academic. I'm just giving background here to illustrate a point, not bragging. I'm a Magna cum Laude, 4 year, east coast college grad...I know what I'm doing when it comes to studying. That was not the problem here. I dove into the materials online, my book didn't arrive for more than a week, (due to issues with the billing/shipping address part of their site not matching up), and I put a couple good weeks in really going all out with the info I was given that was "on the test." I was very confident going into the exam, since I had all of Lytespeed's performance objectives down cold. Little to my dismay, I was surprised to see that about 75% of the material I was told was heavy on the exam NEVER showed up! I am also a former highly accredited educator. Everyone understands that not all info is on every exam, but there was a lot of leeway here... *****I don't think if I hadn't had other life, career, and educational experience prior to going through the Lytespeed curriculum that I would have passed the first time. ****** I used all my past experience to answer the questions I came across that didn't match my Lytespeed training info. Lesson learned, for sure. I give it 3 stars only because I passed the first time, but really the credit goes to me more than to them. I agree with another Yelper about the material being outdated. Literally that night, right after I took the exam, I received an email from them with and "update" if info that would be in my exam. 75% of that was inaccurate as well- only one part they mentioned was actually on the test! Meh. I don't like to slam anyone on Yelp, but I feel it's my duty to be 100% honest in any review. Educational materials are a springboard, what you make them. I live by that little tenet. I just think in this day and age, there must be closer- more spot on representations for this particular exam out there. You can do better! Shop around!! TIP: I took my exam at PSI in Burbank. PSI: Plenty of free parking. Good test site, nazi-like test proctors. (You can't even chew gum, they will ask. I even had to remove a bracelet I was wearing.) They will give you a locker for your papers, etc. Don't bring your phone or anything, they prohibit it. If you must use the restroom during your 3 hour test, the clock stays running. Be gone more than 5 minutes and they will shut you down and you'll have to retake! (And pay again!!). Go first. Get your fingerprints done there if you need to, electronic and $ 89 on the spot. They will take your photo, and it will be on your exam certificate, the official one, so If you care...enough said. (I was unaware and that pic will probably show up on my license from the state! Yikes.) You will find out if you passed right after. Don't forget your license or you'll get nowhere. They do take credit cards for the fingerprinting. They will give you a pencil, a pair of disposable earplugs, and 1 sheet of scratch paper. They will require you turn in that paper afterwards to get your driver's license back...they shred it. read more

Excellent Service. I took all my training and studied through their online preparation. They even helped me with my application through state. I passed my test 1st time. I am very satisfied. read more

I took the course for a license recently through this company. I'd heard of them before, but didn't have direct experience until now. It was nice and easy to get into the class, they never seem to have a full class, so waiting until the day of class to register is not a problem. This should have been a sign-lol. The building is run down and the classroom is just the same. Cold, classroom, in a not so great area or building. I'd hoped the teaching would have been good, but it really wasn't. The teachers were "all over the place", there wasn't any form or consistency to the program, except that the teachers seemed to only speak about their own personal experiences and tell stories. They tell you a lot about different things that happened to them or other agents they know, but we weren't there for that now, were we? Many times the teachers contradicted their own teachings saying one thing, then in the next 10 minutes or the very next day, saying just the opposite. The only benefit out of this course was that I completed it in 4 days. The 1 day crash review course is a complete waste of time. At the end of the course, I felt like I knew absolutely nothing, couldn't make heads or tails of the materials and was certainly not prepared to take the test at all! I ended up taking another course online which was amazing! Bottom line-this course isn't worth it! It was a complete waste of my money and time and was not helpful at all. The teachers they used didn't have current information and everything was outdated...EVERYTHING! You can do better elsewhere! read more

PASSED my CA Life/Health/Accident Insurance Exam the first time...! That itself might earn them 5-stars, but it's more like 6 or 7-Stars: - Easy to use & intuitive Courses for 12-hr. Code and 40-hr. Pre-Licensing. Accompanying videos bring the text to life, emphasize Educational Objectives, and go hand-in-hand with Exam Prep. - Multi-Section Exam Prep with KEY Terminology and Test-taking Tips. 10 different Practice Tests with relevant feedback options; ability to Tag questions for later review, so you only re-take/review concepts you haven't yet mastered. - Phenomenal 7-hr Live Class that brings everything home from an industry expert (Mary, you're the BEST!). read more

The team at LyteSpeed were super helpful! At one point, they were on a 3-way call with myself and the Department of Insurance helping sort things out. In every engagement, they were professional, proactive, and always very caring and helpful. THANK YOU LYTESPEED! read more

Nancy helped me out with my issues over the phone and I couldn't ask for a better customer service than what I've received, problem totally solved and I'm grateful that I took my courses here, god bless her and all the other wonderful staffs that are keeping the company on point during this pandemic. read more

I took P& L , Life, and Health Pre-licensing courses. The only reason I went with Lytespeed is because they have Continuing education included.To be honest, not really impressed with the material consequence. they jump from one to another, then to the third, and after that come back to the first topic. There are a lot of typos, and in some chapters you would just see a pile of information thrown in together, not consistent. It confuses you. Since the state changes the questions periodically, over 60% of the questions on the exam were not covered in the book/videos, even though I took around 80% of practice tests. Maybe it was my bad luck, lol. Bottom line, I passed both tests first time. that's why I give 4 stars. I believe, they deserve it! read more

Quick and easy process to complete my license renewal. Every time I called, someone was able to answer any questions I may have! This is the 2nd time, I have renewed my license with them. Would definitely come back again! read more

As a former student at LyteSpeed learning I could say the knowledge, Service, and attention I got was beyond excellent. The instructors are great with answering questions and making sure you understand all you need to know. The Service is great, they literally hold your hand the whole way, even after you pass your life and health/ Property and casualty courses they will tell you what CE classes you need to take eah year. They've been more helpful than the DOI. As far as the online goes, I did my p/c online and if I did have any issues they were there to help and acknowldged any concern I had. BTW- I PASSED MY LIFE AND HEALTH AND FIRE AND CASUALTY LICENSING THE FIRST TRY. My friend did not pass the first time attending another school. Thereafter, went to lytespeed and they help her pass the next try. For the bad reviews you've read--- Definitely ignore them. BEST SCHOOL, BEST SERVICE. read more

Came to LyteSpeed on the strong recommendation of a colleague and I couldn't be more grateful for that recommendation. I took the classroom instruction for Life & Health and Property & Casualty. The course material is presented thoroughly and the accompanying books reinforce all concept and key terms. Mick and Mary make the material interesting and relatable and the supplemental materials available through the web portal provide more review videos and practice exams than required to pass the exam the first time. LyteSpeed will give you al the tools you need to pass your test(s) and then some. The rest is up to you. read more

My Experience with Light Speed was top Notch!! they went over and beyond in regards to how they helped me pass my insurance exams. Mick was Great!! I would highly recommend them!!!!! read more

Took me about a month and a 1/2 to complete the online course, but I studied reasonably hard to pass my Personal and Casualty exam and did it 1st time around. I only give 4 stars as I have a feeling the learning experience would've been improved if I'd had been able attend an actual class. Due to Covid, I learned entirely online and it was a bit challenging. read more

Couldn't have been happier! Mic, Mary, and Nancy are amazing. Each had individual interest in every students success. Class was fun in a brilliant learning environment! Highly recommend! Thank you!! read more

I have been using Lyte Speed Learning since 2011. The classroom learning was Fun and Professional and I passed the Life/Health exam the first time. All of my continued education has been done online and through their Website. I have to say, I love the New Website; it's easy to navigate, very well thought out and has never crashed as I was studying or taking an Exam. If you are a New Agent starting out, you will have plenty of questions (I sure did). The staff is really friendly, supportive and will bend over backwards to help you. Thank you Lyte Speed Learning for your continued support. read more

Mick and Mary are the absolute best, they made me confident that Insurance was my next career move. Being absent from a classroom environment for over twenty years made me nervous, but they made it pain free. The hands-on, interactive, humorous, and intelligent instruction from two professionals prepared me for my property/casualty state exam. And....I passed on my very first attempt. Already looking forward to returning to class for Life and Health asap!!! If there has ever been any doubt if you can be successful in the area of insurance, give LyteSpeed a try. Promise, it will be time well invested. Thank you Mick, Mary, and the entire LyteSpeed family. See you all soon. Gregory A. Garrison read more

Lytespeed learning center is by far the best material when it comes to studying for your state licensing exams. I work at a brokerage and we have tried so many different materials and time and time again lytespeed as been the best. We have tried everything there is out there. I passed my test on the first time with a 76%!!! They are the best!!! read more

I chose Lytespeed because a friend of mine highly recommended them. Now I do as well. I ordered the Diamond Package which in my opinion is the way to go. At the end I also took the crash course in person to ensure that I understood everything and to ask any questions that I needed. The material is great, the videos are great. I love that you can watch the videos on your phone will working out, or listen to the prep while out walking your dog. They make this very easy for you. All you have to do is pay attention. The instructor and staff is great. You can call them anytime. I love that they make themselves available to you and I never felt like a bother when I would call with my dumb questions. read more

Mic and staff were great! I like to always leave room for improvement so 4/5 Stars is MY HIGHEST PRAISE! They did exactly what they said they would do. I learned/studied from both the online and classroom settings. I passed my state exam with flying colors (because I did what Mic instructed, verbatim). I recommend using Lytespeed! RH read more

This place is THE place for any insurance producer looking to learn beyond the material. Not only will you walk out feeling incredibly confident about testing, you're actually going to be informed about the industry as a whole. Mick's class, specifically the in person class, was really key for me scoring well above 80% when you only need a 60 to pass. I learned several practices that will help in my day-to-day operations, and even some insightful things completely unrelated to insurance. I can't recommend this place enough! read more

I took my license with them back in 2014. I took my CEUs with them 3 times so far. Very, very informative and very easy. They're very efficient and they make the processes very doable. read more

I'm very thankful that I found Lyghtspeed. I was having great difficulties passing the test and failed it three times. I met Mick came up with a plan and on the fourth time passed the test. I'm thrilled. read more

I highly recommend Lyte Speed Learning. I passed the exam on my first try! I did the online exam prep course with 1 live exam prep class. Nancy was very helpful and knowledgeable. Thanks Lyte Speed! read more

Mick the instructor is very knowledable and interesting to listen to. The online materials and tests prepare one for the exam. I found that the course was spot on with the test material. Highly recommend. read more

LyteSpeed Learning is absolutely AMAZING!!! I went through the school last month I took the Life Agent insurance test on 11/06/12 and passed on the first try (I had no previous insurance sales experience)! The owners Mr. & Mrs. Strickler, instructors, and staff are extremely proficient, competent, and expert in what they do and teach. They truly care for their students and that includes online students as well. If the student listens to them, studies, and has a good outlook they'll pass the test. I DID! So, to all the naysayers, I'm sorry that you feel your experience was less than positive, but perhaps you came to the table with the wrong attitude. "Attitude determines altitude". Way to go LyteSpeed! You ROCK! Sincerely, one immensely satisfied student Pam Pet read more

I PASSED my Life & Health Exam the first time after attending LyteSpeed Learning for the prelicensing class! They were recommended to me by local agents, so I decided to take the class onsite. And, I am certainly happy that I did! Not only were Mick and Mary very knowledgeable and informative, but they both made learning insurance a lot of fun! I highly recommend LyteSpeed Learning for all your insurance learning needs. This is a great company and live up to what they promise.....you'll pass the exam on your first time! read more

I am so lucky to find this company. They are so helpful, and are there when you need them. My whole office uses them to get licensed. I wouldn't look anywhere else to go for testing, you found the place read more
