21 NCAC 58C .0302. PROGRAM STRUCTURING AND ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

(a)  The real estate prelicensing education program shall consist of a single course consisting of at least 75 classroom hours of instruction.  Schools may establish course admission standards that require students to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the school that they possess the basic reading, writing and mathematics skills necessary to be successful in the prelicensing course, and these standards may include a requirement to complete additional instruction prior to enrollment.

(b)  The real estate postlicensing education program shall consist of three courses, prescribed by the Commission in 21 NCAC 58A .1902, each consisting of at least 30 classroom hours of instruction, which may be taken by students in any sequence.

(c)  The prerequisite for enrollment in a postlicensing course is possession of a current North Carolina broker license on provisional status; however, schools may admit an unlicensed individual to a postlicensing course if the individual demonstrates that he or she needs to complete the course for the purpose of qualifying for reinstatement of an expired, canceled, revoked or surrendered license not on provisional status, or may admit any individual regardless of license status if the individual demonstrates that he or she is required to complete the course pursuant to a disciplinary consent order issued by the Commission.  A school shall not knowingly enroll an individual in a postlicensing course while the individual is taking another postlicensing course at the same school or a different school if such enrollment would result in the individual being in class for more than 21 classroom hours in any given seven-day period.
