How to Register

There are many ways to register for courses with the East Carolina University’s Continuing and Professional Education (CPE).

Please contact the coordinator or visit the website for confirmation of event before making travel arrangements. If CPE cancels a course, you may request a tuition transfer to another course within one year of enrollment or request a full refund (allow three to four weeks for processing from the date of the request).

Income Tax Deductions for Educational Expenses

Please retain your confirmation of enrollment and payment for tax purposes, in some cases students are eligible for the Lifetime Learning Credit.

CPE courses do not earn academic credit and cannot be transferred to degree programs.
