IIRC,

there is an instructors course for the NRA basic pistol course that you would have to take to become an NRA certified instructor.

That may or may not qualify you to teach your state's CCW course. Some states recognize that as enough some require an additional training in the self defense laws of the state. NC does not recognize the NRA certificate and requires additional instructor training.
