What Our Students Say
Real results. Real people. Real South Africans.
“Huge thank you to RE-Sure Academy, Mzwandile — after a previous failed attempt. His clear techniques and calm, effective way of tackling questions made the content so much easier to grasp.”
“RE-Sure is the best in town. Mzwandile is good with what he does — I didn't only come out with good results, I also learnt to be always positive no matter how hard something may seem.”
“Thank you so much for your assistance with RE5. Many said this was impossible to pass, but your classes and mock exams made it easier for me. I recognised questions that were asked in the actual exam.”
“After months of struggling to understand RE5, I decided to join RE-SURE's online classes and it was the best decision I could have made! The material was broken down in a way that was easy to understand.”
“Awuthi yami. Mr Mzwandile, the lecture. The master of his art! I would like to thank you immensely king. You are changing peoples lives, you know that.”
“I honestly do not think I could have made it through my RE exam without Mzwandile's help. His classes were not only informative but also encouraging, which made the whole prep journey a lot less intimidating.”

Get StartedFrom a Garage.
To 500+ Lives Changed.
RE-SURE Academy started on Valentine's Day, 14 February 2021 — with just 2 students and a dream. Not in a fancy boardroom. Not with venture capital. In a garage.
Our founder, Mr Mzwandile, saw firsthand how talented financial advisors were failing their regulatory exams — not because they weren't capable, but because the preparation resources available to them were inadequate.
So he built something better. Classes rooted in real exam experience, study tools that actually work, and a community of support that stays with you until you pass.
Today, 500+ professionals across South Africa have passed their RE5 and RE1 exams with RE-SURE Academy. And we're just getting started.
Common Questions
About the Courses
RE5 is for Representatives — financial advisors, brokers and sales consultants who give financial advice to clients. RE1 is for Key Individuals — FSP owners, managers and compliance officers who oversee financial services operations.
No. The course is designed to take you from zero knowledge of the FAIS Act to fully exam-ready. All you need is commitment.
Live sessions run from 18:30 to 20:30 each evening, Monday to Friday on Microsoft Teams. The full programme runs over 5 days.
All sessions are recorded. You will have access to all recordings on the e-learning portal for 2 months so you can catch up at your own pace.
A refresher class is included in your package at no extra charge. We do not leave students behind.
Yes. Our RE5 + RE1 bundle gives you access to both programmes at a discounted rate of R2,800.
About the RE Exam
The exam is written at Moonstone test centres across South Africa.
You register directly through the Moonstone website at moonstone.co.za. RE-SURE Academy prepares you — Moonstone administers the exam. Please note that Moonstone charges a separate exam registration fee of R1,300, payable directly to Moonstone. This is not included in your RE-SURE Academy course fee.
Yes — in addition to your RE-SURE Academy course fee, you will need to pay R1,300 directly to Moonstone to register for your exam. This is Moonstone's exam administration fee and is not collected by RE-SURE Academy. We recommend budgeting for this when planning your exam preparation.
You need 66% or higher to pass both RE5 and RE1.
As many times as needed within your 24-month DOFA deadline.
Under FAIS legislation, all representatives must pass RE5 within 24 months of their Date of First Appointment. Failing to do so can result in debarment — meaning you can no longer legally provide financial advice.
