About Kat Messenger's Carolina Dealer Training
The original Carolina dealer training school. Our founder, Kat Messenger, has trained dealers in North and South Carolina longer than anyone else in either state. Our courses have been approved in both states since 2002.
What we do
We teach the North Carolina 12-hour and South Carolina 8-hour dealer pre-license courses in person, and North Carolina 6-hour continuing education in person or online at your own pace. We also offer a titles and registrations course, private and small-group training at your location, and NC title processing, and we sell NC DMV-approved MVR-2 forms.
Why dealers choose us
We're open to all, with no membership required. We stay with you after class with ongoing support at no additional cost. At our pre-license classes, your spouse can sit in free (no certificate) and you can bring an interpreter at no charge. Just email us first to confirm. Our classes cover state and federal compliance, and you get to ask questions and meet top vendors from the auto dealer industry.
