Affordable Preparation That Works

At just $295 for full Law & Trade exam prep, Home Study is the lowest-cost option available. You’ll still get comprehensive preparation without sacrificing quality, allowing you to invest in your future without breaking your budget.

Clear, Easy-to-Follow Study Manuals

Our 100-page Law & Trade manuals are streamlined to cover only what’s on the CSLB exam. That means less time wasted and more time spent actually preparing to pass. Simple language and helpful illustrations make concepts easy to grasp, even if you haven't studied in years.

Practice Exams That Build Confidence

Get 90 days of online practice exams that mirror the real CSLB test, available on both desktop and our exclusive mobile app. This gives you the chance to practice as much as needed, measure your progress, target weak areas, and walk into test day fully confident.

Complimentary Application Review

Our experts carefully review your CSLB application before submission, ensuring accuracy and compliance. This helps you avoid frustrating rejections and delays so you can move more quickly toward your exam and your license.

What's Included in the In-Class Preparation Course

Law & Business Manual

Our concise, easy-to-read manual breaks down the CSLB Law & Business exam into clear, manageable sections with simple language and helpful illustrations. It focuses only on what you will see on the contractor’s license exam, so you save time and reduce stress while studying.

Trade Manual

A trade-specific manual tailored to your chosen classification (such as General Building, Electrical, Plumbing, HVAC, and more). It simplifies complex information with drawings and step‑by‑step explanations, so you’re prepared for the technical questions you’ll face on exam day. You’ll walk into your exam confident you’ve studied the right material for your trade.

90 Days of Practice Exams (Online + Mobile App)

Get unlimited access for 90 days to exam-style practice tests that look and feel just like the CSLB exam, with 100–125 multiple-choice questions per test. Available on desktop and our exclusive mobile app, each exam provides instant results and detailed answer explanations so you can track your progress, strengthen weak areas, and walk into test day fully confident.

Complimentary Application Review

The application process is one of the most difficult parts of becoming a licensed contractor in California. If the application is not filled out properly, it may be denied or rejected by the Contractors State License Board. That’s why every course comes with a complimentary application review. Our application department will review your application before we send it to the State for processing. This review saves you time and prevents headaches when dealing with the Contractors State License Board.
