Tutors Joel Corry & Dr. Lynn Lashbrook: Learn from experienced agents!
Joel Corry was a Sports Agent for 16 years, representing NFL & NBA players. In 1992 at Management Plus Enterprises, who represented top-level athletes including Ronnie Lott,Hakeem Olajuwon, and Shaquille O'Neal. Joel left Management Plus in 1995 to co-found Premier Sports and Entertainment, which focused on representing NFL players, college athletes, and NFL coaches. He was the primary and co-negotiator of numerous NFL player contracts, including Hall of Famer John Randle's 5-year, $32.5 million contract with the Minnesota Vikings (1998), Patrick Surtain's 6-year, $44.63 million contract with the Kansas City Chiefs (2005), which made Patrick the highest paid player in the franchise's history.
Randle's contract made him the NFL's highest-paid defensive player with unprecedented guarantees that have become the norm in the most lucrative NFL contracts. Other Premier clients included Pro Bowlers Eric Allen, Keenan McCardell, and Jimmy Smith. Joel served as a consultant with Management Plus for several years after starting Premier. As a consultant, he played an integral part in the negotiation of Shaquille O'Neal's Los Angeles Lakers contracts ($120 million over 7 years & subsequent 3-year, $88.3 million extension).
In 2012, Joel became a contributing writer for the National Football Post. He uses his NFL salary cap and collective bargaining agreement knowledge to provide a perspective on player salaries, contract negotiations and the salary cap that is rarely seen in the media. In 2013, Joel began writing for CBSSports.com on similar topics, but for a larger audience. Joel also appears regularly on radio shows, including SiriusXM NFL Radio.

Thank you for everything! I was able to pass my exam. The course and Joel is a factor in my success. I greatly appreciate the SMWW program.

Thank you SMWW. I passed the exam and I felt extremely well about the material before and after the exam. During the test breaks, other testers were asking me questions.
All of that to say, Joel Corry was an outstanding instructor. I appreciate SMWW for such a great course. I also want to thank you, Alyssa, for the support you provided as well.

I found out the other day that I passed the exam, and I just wanted to send you a quick email and say how helpful your class was in getting me prepared to take the exam. I would not have had the amount of preparation necessary to pass if I did not take your course. The test definitely lived up to the hype as far as difficulty, but with the prep work we did in class it was no problem.
Mike Miller
I passed! I felt very prepared thanks to Joel’s tutelage. I think without the course, the NFLPA test would have been way more difficult but I felt comfortable when I finished. Thank you SMWW and Joel!

I wanted to briefly thank you for your guidance during the recent NFL exam class you lead. I found it very helpful, and it helped me pass the test. I didn’t pass last year, but after taking your class it got me over the top! Thanks for your assistance!
Just a quick note of gratitude. I'm both a pharmacist and an attorney, which means I am no stranger to licensing exams (6 total licenses across 4 states). I absolutely mean it when I say, without your course there is NO way I could have passed the nflpa exam. But thanks to you, I can now say I am a certified nfl player agent (pending registration fee and insurance of course!) Thanks again for all of the assistance, and I wish you continued success in all of your future endeavors!

Joel Corry and the SMWW Agent Certification Course in one word, 'methodical'. Joel's approach to studying makes it easier to understand the Collective Bargaining Agreement, a complex document. I now have an in-depth understanding of the CBA and it is a big reason why I am an Agent today. I am extremely grateful to Joel. His reputation of being a great agent carries over to being a great teacher. The class is a game changer and felt fortunate to have had Joel in my corner prior to the test.

The NFLPA Agent Certification Course was the 3rd course I have taken with your company - and I wanted to let you know Joel Corry is one of the best of the best. The experience in the class, his attentiveness to our questions throughout the week, everything, beyond my expectation. Felt very confident going into the exam and know without a doubt I wouldn't be in that same mindset without Joel's guidance. I wanted to take the time to let you know, Joel is a great asset to your company, and a great professor.

Joel, I just found out I passed the NFLPA Certification exam, so I will be able to move forward with my NFL agent venture. I wanted to say thanks so much for your guidance and help in understanding the CBA…you MORE than prepared me! I really say this in a modest way, and complimentary to you, but the exam didn’t seem that difficult and I believe part of the reason is because of how you helped me over-prepare, going through the most difficult scenarios.
