Your Class Plan
What You’ll Learn
A two-day General Building (B) and Law & Business study-planning workshop. The school test checks this course’s learning outcomes; it is not a CSLB exam or a guarantee of passing it.
Before you start: Construction experience and willingness to complete additional independent study. Review current CSLB eligibility separately; attending this class does not establish eligibility.
Planned teaching timetable: 8:30 AM–4:30 PM on Day 1 and Day 2, including breaks and lunch. This is the planned class schedule; actual class dates, daily times and venue will be confirmed before enrollment.
By the end, you should be able to
- Find current official CSLB application and examination resources.
- Map personal study gaps to the published General B and Law & Business topic outlines.
- Practice construction math, drawing interpretation, estimating and scheduling questions.
- Locate current contract, licensing, insurance and business-compliance references.
- Use timed practice, error analysis and a written study plan to continue preparation.

Your hands-on project
Produce a current-source checklist, a General B/Law & Business topic-gap map, worked math/scenario questions, and a two-week study plan. Use an instructor-provided current official source pack for regulatory questions.
Final knowledge test
Ten questions specific to California Contractor License Prep, covering the skills, decisions, calculations and safety boundaries taught in this course. Each question is worth two points. Pass mark: 16 out of 20 (80%).
The instructor provides the test after training. Approved accessibility support may change how you respond while keeping the same learning standard.
Practical assessment
Complete the course project and demonstrate the skills individually. Five criteria are scored from 0–4. Pass mark: 16 out of 20 (80%), with no criterion below 2 and every critical safety check passed.
What your instructor will assess
- Distinguish school completion, application eligibility, examination and licensing.
- Locate and correctly cite current official source material.
- Solve the supplied math/scenario tasks with shown reasoning.
- Classify errors and develop a realistic study priority plan.
- Explain next steps without making unsupported eligibility or pass claims.
Training boundaries: Educational exam preparation only. Do not treat the school handbook as the sole current legal/code authority. No license application or binding filing is submitted during the workshop.
Earn your certificate of completion
- Complete both days and all required learning activities; missed content must be made up.
- Pass the knowledge test and practical assessment separately; a strong score in one does not cancel a failed result in the other.
- Pass every critical safety check and receive the instructor’s sign-off.
If you need more practice, your instructor records the missing skills and assigns focused review and reassessment. Certificates are issued only after all requirements are met.
Your certificate records completion of this Construction Guys course. It is not a contractor license, trade license, or authorization to perform regulated work independently.
Credential scope: The school test is separate from CSLB examinations and licensing. Use the current official CSLB study guides.
Next learning step: Build Your Construction Company. Your instructor can help you choose based on demonstrated skills.
