    Public Chapter 186 – Residential Continuing Education

    A new provision in the law requires Residential contractors, only those licensed after January 1, 2009, with a residential license classification of BC-A, BC-A/r, and BC-A,b(sm), will be required to obtain eight (8) hours of Board-approved Residential Continuing Education (RCE) as a prerequisite to renew.

  •  

    Residential contractors, starting with ones expiring on January 31, 2022, and thereafter, will be required to show proof of eight (8) RCE hours with their contractor’s license renewal from any of the RCE Approved Providers and will need to attach to the contractor's online renewal’s “File Attachment” as “Other - Disclosures and Additional Info” along with their Financial Statement and Certificate of Insurance. An individual designated as a Qualifying Agent (QA) on the contractor’s license will be responsible for attaining RCE on behalf of the licensed entity. For contractors with multiple qualifying agents, only one (1) will be required to obtain RCE to fulfill the license renewal requirements.
