North Carolina Real Estate: Provisional Broker Post licensing Requirements

Total Hours Required: 90
Mandatory Hours: 90
Elective Hours: 0
Renewal Cycle in Years: 1

Online Info

Once licensed, a provisional broker must complete all Post licensing courses within the 18-month period immediately following the date of initial licensure.

The Post licensing education program is divided into three 30-hour Post licensing courses:
301 Broker Relationships and Responsibilities
302 Contracts and Closing
303 License Law, Commission Rules, and Legal Concepts

Expiration Date of Course: All Post courses must be completed within 180 days from registration.

Post licensing courses may be taken in any sequence. However, the Commission recommends that you follow the course number sequence (301, 302, & 303), as course materials were developed with that sequence in mind.

All provisional brokers must satisfy the Post licensing education requirement of 90 classroom hours of Post licensing education to be eligible for active broker license status. Post licensing education is a one-time requirement and should not be confused with continuing education (CE).

Licensees must also complete their required CE courses prior to the second renewal of their license.
