Who is this course designed for?
Licensed California contractors, project managers, apprentices, and anyone who wants to bid construction work professionally and profitably. Whether you’ve been estimating by gut feeling for years or you’re starting fresh, this course gives you the system.
What’s the difference between Live and Livestream?
The Live option covers all course content over 2 intensive days at a physical location in Southern California — great if you want to knock it out fast and benefit from the in-room experience. The Livestream option delivers the same content over 8 Tuesday nights online — ideal if you can’t take two days away from your jobs.
Do I get a certificate when I finish?
Yes. Every student who completes the course receives their Certified Estimating Professional (CEP) credential.
Is the course manual really included in the price?
Yes — with both packages. Live students receive their manual at the class. Livestream students have theirs shipped before the first session begins.
What if I miss a session or need to reschedule?
Life happens. Contact us at 800-659-1207 or Hello@ContractorLicenseNow.com and we’ll work something out. We’re committed to making sure you complete the program.
