Course description

The 13 subject hours an Oregon residential contractor licensed less than six years needs, in one purchase: our two Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB) approved courses, taken online at your own pace.

5-Hour CE: Building Science, Moisture and Energy (CCB course SRA3022). Building science and moisture control, ventilation of crawlspaces and attics, Oregon's residential energy code, radon-resistant new construction, wildfire-resistant construction in the wildland-urban interface, and snow-load design for Oregon's mountain regions.

8-Hour CE: Business Practices, Safety and Structural Topics (CCB course SRA3023). Contracts, estimating, scheduling and cash flow; risk management, insurance and workers' compensation; jobsite safety from fall protection to lead-safe renovation; and structural topics including wind loads, the continuous load path, shear walls and seismic design for western Oregon.

These are hours in the CCB's approved subject list. They do not include the 3 hours of CCB laws, regulations and business practices, which the CCB teaches itself, on demand in your CCB online account or by live webinar.

Buying both courses together costs $74, $4 less than buying them separately. You are enrolled in both courses at once and receive a certificate of completion for each.
