New Continuing Education Requirements for Certified and Registered Contractors
Thursday, January 24th, 2008House Bill 7163 (2007 Legislative Session) revised the continuing education requirements for certified and registered contractors licensed by the Construction Industry Licensing Board. All certified and registered contractors must now complete one hour of laws and rules-related continuing education as part of the 14 hours that are currently required during each licensure cycle.
Enforcement of the new one-hour requirement will begin with the expiration of certified licenses on August 31, 2008, and the expiration of registered licenses on August 31, 2009. Those licensees not in compliance with all continuing education requirements by the expiration date of their licenses may face non-renewal or disciplinary action.
