This page contains information Continuing Education for PPS Licensees. We have been receiving numerous questions concerning continuing education credits for Private
Protective Services License Holders. If more than 12 hours of continuing education are completed in one renewal period, please be advised that only the 12 hours will be applied for that period, and any remaining hours are not applicable for future renewals. The rules have been amended for license renewals to require 12 continuing education credits for any license that expires after January 1, 2012. Courses are currently being given that will allow you to obtain
continuing education credits prior to January 1, 2012. (Please see the Board's website for approved courses.) Therefore, if you are renewing your license after January 1, 2012, you will need to submit your renewal application along with Certificates of Completion that show you have received 12 hours of CE before the expiration date of your license. To receive Continuing Education credit, a licensee must: Every Licensee must also submit the Licensee's Statement of Continuing Education
Hours. The licensee fills out this form and signs it verifying they have met and taken the required twelve (12) hours of continuing education hours to renew their licensee. To
obtain Private Protective Services Board approval of Continuing Education courses: The rules require each licensee to complete at least twelve hours of CE training during each two-year renewal period. Registered employees are
not required to complete continuing education. As a result, anyone renewing a license on or after January 1, 2012, must have completed his or her CE hours within the previous two-year licensing period. Once the class is scheduled, the sponsor must notify the PPSB Secretary. The sponsor will then be sent an Attendance Roster and a Course Attendance Certification. At the end of the course, the instructor must provide an Attendance Certification to all persons completing the class. The
Private Protective Services Board is currently pursuing legislative changes related to the oversite of close personal protection (executive protection). The Board anticipates adopting regulations related to close personal protection licensing requirements, but has not done so yet. Accordingly, there is no guarantee that any course related to close personal protection will satisfy any training requirements regarding potential licensure. Additionally, the Board may approve close personal
protection courses for continuing education credit. A Board-approved continuing education course does not necessarily satisfy any potential close personal protection licensing requirements. https://www.ncdps.gov/about-dps/boards-and-commissions/private-protective-services-board/continuing-education General Statute 87-10.2 states that North Carolina licensed general contractors are required to complete continuing education (CE) beginning with 2021 license renewals.
