What happens if I forgot to complete my C.E.?
See below how many hours you need in addition to the current year's 8 Hours:
| # Years Licensee Failed to Renew License | CE Elective Hours Required for License Renewal | Mandatory Course Required for License Renewal |
| 1 | 6 | 2 Hour Mandatory Course for the *Current License Year |
| 2 | 12 | 2 Hour Mandatory Course for the *Current License Year |
| 3 | 18 | 2 Hour Mandatory Course for the *Current License Year |
| 4 | 24 | 2 Hour Mandatory Course for the *Current License Year |
*Please remember: The “Current License Year” refers to the calendar year for which the licensee is seeking to renew the license, so the Mandatory Course that is required depends on the year for which the licensee wishes to renew the license.
Don't plan on using your license but don't want to fully forfeit it, then go on inactive status.
License Inactive Rules:
1. Prior to renewal, email the board that you wish to inactivate your license.
2. By inactivating you will not be required to complete annual C.E. hours.
3. While inactive, your license will be in inactive/invalid status and you will not be able to use the license to conduct business as a licensed GC.
4. You MUST request each year to place the license to inactive status, and you are still required to complete the license renewal form and applicable license fees (based on the license level).

How does my C.E. credit get submitted to the NCLBGC?
We submit directly to the NCLBGC all C.E. credit that you complete with us.
The NCLBGC requires all providers to sumbit a qualifier's fully completed C.E. credit within 7 days of full completion. Though this is currently a manual process (and not automated), know that we submit a few times per week.
