What is Preventing You from Registering for Your CE Course Today?

Would you rather spend the year choosing courses that interest you—or spend the final weeks scrambling to find a course that fits your schedule?

For the 2025–2026 license year, 2,032 North Carolina brokers went inactive because they failed to complete their required CE. Therefore, they lost active status simply because their education requirements were not completed by June 10, 2026, at 11:59PM EST. Don’t let your CE become a last-minute emergency. Take your CE now—and take it early.

Brokers should plan ahead to take their CE courses because completing your CE early allows you to select courses that fit your schedule, interests, and professional goals instead of settling for whatever is available at the last minute, which may induce stress. Life is unpredictable, but your CE deadline is not. You can control when you register for your CE courses.

Therefore, take a few minutes today to find a course, register, and put it on your calendar. Your future self will thank you—and you can avoid becoming one of the brokers who discovers too late that an unfinished CE requirement can have real consequences. Moreover, CE courses are offered in a variety of formats, which makes it easier to find an option that fits your schedule and learning preferences.
