Keeping Your License Active

Per North Carolina Real Estate Commission (NCREC) Rules, all licensed brokers (both provisional and non-provisional) must take a minimum of eight (8) hours of continuing education (CE) each license year to maintain their license on Active status.

  • Brokers-in-Charge must take their version of the mandatory update: "BICUP" or "Broker-in-Charge Update."
  • Full Brokers who are not Brokers-in-Charge must take their version of the mandatory update: "GENUP" or "General Update."
  • All licensees must choose an elective of their preference for the additional four hours of CE credit. Please be aware that Brokers-in-Charge may not take the "GENUP" or "General Update" for elective credit. Doing so will remove your BIC-eligibility status.

Course Descriptions

When No One is Watching - The Code of Ethics Beyond Enforcement - Online Elective
The National Association of REALTORS® developed the NAR Code of Ethics in 1913 because it realized that real estate licensees handle the largest financial transaction a typical consumer will ever participate in. The guidelines for ethical behavior are practical and easy to implement, yet still seem to be ignored on a routine basis. This leads us to the basic question of “what type of real estate professional do you want to be?” This 4-hour program is dedicated to exploring real life case studies and helping brokers align their business processes to adhere to a Code of Conduct that benefits not only the real estate professional but protects the public at large.

NAR Settlement 2024 Listing Agent Procedures
Join the TravTalks team (Travis Everette, Leslye Helton, and Seth Thomas) for a FREE session dedicated to helping listing agents navigate the waters post NAR settlement on compensation issues in the housing market. This course is open to any licensees who would like to register and will focus on how to list property, have compensation discussions with your seller clients, and convey the correct information to buyers and their agents throughout the process.

“If You List You Last” - Online Elective
The goal of the class is to help students refocus on the quality of service in listings. During the Covid-19 Pandemic of 2020-2021, real estate agents had it easy. Prices in North Carolina increased by almost 20% annually and many people who left the real estate business previously came back and jumped in for the money grab. The National Association of Realtors reported an increase of membership to over 1.8 million Realtors® in the United States. Normally, that number is between 1.2 million and 1.5 million. As a result, the quality of service provided to home sellers diminished as agents could put a house on the market with years of deferred maintenance and at $25,000 to $50,000 over the actual value of the property and sell it in a weekend. Learning to sell real estate in a down market, like both Steve and I did, made us better real estate agents. Now, facing a similar market as interest rates and inventories rise across the country, we thought it was a good time to create class that focused on the quality of the process and the art of listing homes.

Attendance and Grading

The school follows the North Carolina Real Estate Commission's policy that all students must attend at least 90% of the scheduled class instruction time for any course. Attendance is taken at every class session, and any student who misses more than 10% of the scheduled class meeting time will not be eligible to pass the course. This does not mean that students are expected or encouraged to miss any class time. All students are expected to be in every class session and will be solely responsible for the material missed during any absence.

Each of the Post-Licensing courses offered by the school has a mandatory coursework, quizzes, and open-book examinations. Students will be eligible to sit for the examination if they have met the above attendance requirements and completed all in-class and homework assignments over the course duration. The course's final grade is based on a combination of these factors.

Once any course offered by the school is completed successfully, the student will receive a course completion certificate, and their status will be recorded with the North Carolina Real Estate Commission so that they may receive credit for the courses they completed.
