When new students come to CSLS, it’s because they want the very best in construction industry education, and that’s what we give them. What many don’t realize, though, is there are actually two types of lessons you get at our school…
The First Is the Knowledge You Need to Pass Your Contractors Licensing Exam
These are the things you probably think of when you envision CSLS, and what most likely drew you
to our school and website in the first place. We are second to none in helping graduates to pass their
exams, which is evidenced by the fact that more than 100,000 professionals got their contracting start
with us (and that we boast a 99.9% first-time passing rate).
Whether you want to study at home, online, or in the classroom, we have learning options that can help
you achieve your goal.
The Second Type of Education Comes in Industry Advice and Connections
As any experienced contractor can tell you, earning your license isn’t the end of your education – it’s just
the beginning. There are a lot of things you have to learn to be successful as a construction professional,
especially if you want to run your own company. Because we only hire seasoned instructors with several
years of experience, our students get the benefit of their perspective. In other words, we pass on lots of
little tips and insights in our classrooms that you couldn’t get anywhere else.
When you combine that with our integrated business services (which can be used to get bonds and
insurance, or to set up your corporation with the appropriate paperwork), it’s easy to see why these
connections and pieces of advice can give you a powerful head start after you leave us.
Passing your licensed contractors exam is important, but so is entering the world of construction with
the skills you need to market yourself and run a business once you have your license in hand. Our
mission is to ensure every CSLS graduate leaves with the best possible chance of success.
