Overview & Benefits

The right resources and exam prep services

Most states require contractor applicants to take and pass a Business and Law exam. The exam will cover basic business management skills necessary to run a construction business. The exam also ensures that contractor applicants are familiar with the legal requirements of establishing a business, including taxes, laws, and regulations governing construction.

We currently offer exam prep courses for 16 states including Alabama (General Contractor),  Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina (Commercial and Residential boards), Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, and West Virginia. 

What's on the Exam?

Get a strong start in building your career

Each state's Business and Law Exam is going to differ slightly, but most follow a similar content outline. Business and Law exams cover topics that are important for a contractor to understand before opening a contracting business. These topics include state licensing requirements, estimating and bidding, tax laws, and contract law.

You can review the Exam Candidate Information Bulletin specific to your state's exam to understand the scope of material you will be tested on.

License Requirements

Steps to obtaining your license

Most license specialties are required to meet other state licensing regulations to obtain licensure. Often these requirements include the need to take an additional technical exam, submit a license application for approval, and meet other licensing requirements. Some states also require pre-license education courses.

We can help you navigate the licensing requirements for your state with our Start-Up Consultation!

Frequently Asked Questions

Learn more about the licensing process

If I pass one state's Business Law exam, can I get out of testing in other states?

Most states require contractor applicants to take and pass a business law exam before obtaining a license. While many states offer license reciprocity with other state licensing boards, it still may be necessary to take and pass the state's business and law exam, even if you are approved opt-out of the technical exam requirement.

You can visit your state's licensing board website to see reciprocity agreements with other state boards, or contact a license specialist for a Start-Up Consultation for a walkthrough of the process!
