Narrative:

While just outside the lee airspace departing to the east; flight crew leveled off at 2;500 ft in VFR condition. Standardization applicant was undergoing some basic instrument procedures therefore wearing a limited viewing device. Suddenly a small jet that was later identified by ip having registration; overflew our airplane by only few hundred ft headed in the same direction. Ip contacted orlando ATC to report the near mid-air collision and ATC explained that aircraft was under radar vectors for practice approaches at the sanford airport and when they realized the alert on radar they immediately instructed the jet to climb. No further explanations were given; flight crew continued with planned lesson.ATC could provide better separation or higher altitudes vectors considering jet aircraft was well outside orlando class B airspace in a known congested area of flight training.
