Course Description

Thirteen hours of Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB) approved continuing education in one course (course SRA3031), taken online at your own pace, with one certificate.

It is made from the lessons of our 5-hour course (SRA3022: building science, moisture, the energy code, radon, wildfire and snow loads) and our 8-hour course (SRA3023: business practices, safety and structural topics). The CCB gives no credit for repeating a course in a licensing period, so if you have taken either of those courses this period, choose a different course.

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 only the CCB or a provider under a CCB agreement may teach.

Licensed less than six years: this course covers the 13 subject hours of your 16-hour renewal.
