Update on Builders License Continuing Education Requirements

The State of Michigan has not yet put into law the regulations surrounding continuing competency for the residential builders license. Until they do, no providers will be approved to provide CE courses.
 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PR Log (Press Release)Aug 20, 2009 – Michigan laws were changed in 2008 requiring Residential Builders to complete continuing competency requirements before they will be able to renew their licenses in 2011.  So far, the State of Michigan has not yet finalized the rules surrounding Continuing Competency.   Until the rules are confirmed no continuing competency providers or courses will be approved.

"It generally takes 12-18 months for the State of Michigan to promulgate rules" according to Lee Schwartz of the MAHB.  "We do not know when these rules will be promulgated as they are sill in draft form and are not high on the department's priority list," adds Lee.  Until the rules are promulgated, no licensee under Article 24 will have to do any continuing competency.  Once the rules are finalized and providers are approved, it is expected that the required number of hours will be pro-rated for that licensing cycle.  In other words, If 21 hours are required over three years, but there are only two years left in the licensing cycle, the licensee will only be required to complete 14 hours.

One rule that has been finalized is that all residential builders and maintenance and alteration contractors that obtained their initial license before May 31, 2009 will only be required to complete three hours of continuing competency in order to renew their license at the end of each licensing cycle.

The Builders License Training Institute will be offering Continuing Competency Courses  in all 23 cities that they currently offer the 60-hour prelicensure programs.  The courses will be competitively priced and will fulfill state requirements.  For further information on continuing competency requirements call the Builders License Training Institute at 1-800-727-7104 or go to www.licensetobuild.com
