What You Need to Know About Testing: A Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Submit an Application
Before taking any exams, you must submit your contractor license application to MSBOC.

PSI will then email you a confirmation notice
You cannot schedule your exam until you receive this confirmation. *If you don’t see the email in your inbox, please check your spam or junk folder. Be sure to mark the sender as “safe” or add the email address to your contacts to avoid missing future communications.
