The National Association of State Contractors Licensing Agencies (NASCLA) accredited examination program makes it easier for contractors to become licensed in multiple states.
It is not a national license. The purpose is to help unify licensing requirements across the country. Passing this allows contractors to waive the trade portion of a participating state's licensing exam.
All other application requirements, including taking each state's Business and Law tests, still apply.
Participating states include Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Our video training lets you learn directly from licensing experts instead of working through hundreds of code requirements on your own.
You'll learn practical test-taking tips, watch lessons dedicated to complex topics like construction math, and discover the best ways to quickly navigate reference materials, which will help you find the information you need within the time limit.
Your enrollment also includes access to multiple confidence-building practice tests featuring a bank of more than 1,000 questions, making it easy to replicate the PSI testing experience at home.
Other Benefits:
Available 24/7 from any device
Stop and resume where you left off as often as you'd like
Includes a bonus lesson: Social Media Marketing for Construction Trades
