The 203k Contractor Education Course fee is $975 and teaches the new FHA 203k rules that are effective as of November 4, 2024.
Because the designation as a Certified 203k Contractor® is earned and retained by the company and is not associated with a person, the 203k Contractor Education Course must be completed by the owner/principal of the company or the individual who holds the contractor license (applicable in areas where licensing is required for contractors).
The 203k Contractor Education Course includes:
- The 140-page Certified 203k Contractor® Training Manual,
- 203k Education Course (3.5-hours total separated into 15 sessions),
- HUD/FHA 203k Updates Guide (1 hour), and
- The 100-question, open book, multiple choice test on the 203k guidelines
Minimum passing grade is 80%.
Additional employees (company staff only) are also encouraged to complete the 203k Contractor Education Course (no additional fee).
Contractor applicants will have a maximum of 30 calendar days to complete the education course, which begins the day the application form below is submitted. The average time it takes to complete the education course requirements is 10-15 hours.
