If a North Carolina court ordered you to complete parent education, our class meets that requirement statewide across all 100 counties. Under Session Law 1999-237, North Carolina courts order parent education in custody and visitation cases. North Carolina judges routinely include this requirement through local court rules across the state's 100 counties.

Our online parenting class covers child development, co-parenting strategies, and communication skills, topics designed to help parents understand their children's needs during and after family transitions. The class is self-paced and accessible 24/7, with instant certificate delivery upon completion.

Both parents complete parent education when ordered by the court. Our certificates are approved by North Carolina courts statewide and include QR verification for instant authentication.

Session Law 1999-237 authorized the NC Administrative Office of the Courts to establish parent education programs administered through local court rules, and local rules make completion mandatory in cases involving minor children.
