The Auction Academy of North Carolina is excited to announce its hybrid Auctioneer Licensing Course, beginning January 2027 in partnership with Central Carolina Community College (CCCC). This innovative program continues to provide aspiring auctioneers across North Carolina with a flexible, affordable, and accessible pathway into one of the state’s most dynamic and rewarding professions.
Following a successful launch and strong student interest, the January 2027 class will offer the next opportunity for individuals to complete the education required to pursue auctioneer licensure in North Carolina without the need to travel or attend traditional classroom sessions.
Designed for working professionals, entrepreneurs, real estate professionals, and individuals seeking a new career path, this state-approved pre-licensing program delivers practical instruction from experienced auction professionals while accommodating today’s busy schedules.
Students who successfully complete the program will satisfy the educational requirements necessary to sit for the North Carolina Auctioneer Licensing Board (NCALB) Licensing Examination and begin their journey as licensed auctioneers.
