Chris does a great job! Some of these CE classes can be boring, but not with Chris. Great Job!
Chris is an awesome instructor and he loves keeping the students engaged. I will be taking several more classes with Level Up Learning.
I really enjoyed taking “A Real Estate Professional’s Guide to 1031 Exchanges.” Chris Cox is an excellent instructor who presents complex information in a way that is clear, practical, and easy to understand. His depth of knowledge is evident throughout the entire course.
Informative and interactive. Chris did a great job keeping us engaged.
This is a great CE option for NC real estate agents — thank you Chris! I always learn something and it keeps me engaged. Chris does a great job of relating the topics to real life and keeping it moving.

Christopher Cox founded Level Up Learning to teach continuing education courses to North Carolina real estate brokers, drawing on real estate experience dating back to 2008 across Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and North Carolina. He became an NCREC-approved instructor in 2020 and built Level Up Learning around interactive, engagement-focused CE instead of standard lecture-style courses.
