Six continuing education courses are required to complete the program. Each course meets for two weekends on Saturdays and Sundays.
The classes will be held at historic sites in Edgecombe County or on the Tarboro campus of Edgecombe Community College. A certificate in Historic Preservation Trades will be earned after completion of the six continuing education courses.
