Welcome to
Professional Regulation


We oversee the licensure, testing, registration, and discipline of more than 30,000 individuals in 67 trade occupations. This office also oversees the administrative and regulatory functions of 7 licensing Boards whose 56 members represent the various professions.

Our purpose is to examine and license all applicants for licenses with the Board of Examiners of Electricians, Board of Hoisting Engineers, Mechanical Board, Board of Examiners of Plumbers, and Board of Examination and Licensing of Telecommunication System Contractors and Technicians and Burgular Alarm Business and Agents.

The unit administers examinations to electricians, hoisting engineers, pipefitters, refrigeration technicians, fire protection sprinkler fitters, sheet metal workers, plumbers and telecommunication system contractors and installers. Examinations are administered monthly at the Department of Labor and Training Building #73.

 

What's New:

Effective January 2010, all licenses issued by Professional Regulation shall be renewed on a two-year cycle, replacing the current one-year cycle.  Read more
