For more than 25 years, Malcolm Lee Boney has worked every side of North Carolina construction: building it, inspecting it, and managing it for the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Air Force, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

As owner of Boney Contractor, LLC since 1999, Malcolm has built custom homes and churches across Onslow, Duplin, and Pender counties and renovated commercial buildings, schools, and houses of worship. All told, Malcolm has managed the construction of more than $1 billion in state and federal projects. That includes more than $102 million in Hurricane Florence renovations at Camp Lejeune for the U.S. Navy, 36 projects for the U.S. Air Force at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, a $100 million task-order contract for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and renovations to the U.S. State Department's headquarters in Washington, D.C.

Malcolm has also enforced the North Carolina building codes as an inspector for Onslow County and the City of Jacksonville, and reviewed stormwater and erosion-control plans as an environmental engineer for the state. Today Malcolm is a Board-approved continuing education instructor and leads NC Contractor Academy's classes and exam-prep programs, so what you learn here comes straight from the job site, the inspector's side of the counter, and the owner's side of the table.

Our Mission

Education That Earns Its Keep

NC Contractor Academy was founded on a straightforward conviction: continuing education and exam prep should make North Carolina’s general contractors better at running their businesses — not simply check a box for the licensing board.

Today, NC Contractor Academy is an NCLBGC Board-approved continuing-education provider built specifically for North Carolina. Every course is taught against current North Carolina statutes, Board policy, and exam standards — not generic, out-of-state material — by instructors who have actually run construction businesses.

From NASCLA and NC Building and Residential exam prep to the full 8-hour annual CE requirement, our curriculum is practical, current, and built around the realities of the job site and the back office. Whether you are preparing for your first license or renewing an existing one, the goal is the same: education that earns its keep.
