Sell Portfolio Before Starting

Starting FT in a few weeks and I believe my BB has a no-trading policy, beyond ETFs. Am I required to sell off my portfolio (which is composed of individual stocks), or if not required, should I do it now anyway? Confused as to what happens if you own stocks but are not allowed to trade them... do you just have to hold them forever (so should sell now)?
