About Contractors State License Service, (CSLS)
Contractors State License Service (CSLS) is the largest school in California
devoted to the Construction professional. For over 23 years, CSLS has helped
its students pass the exam to become licensed contractors in the State of
California, licensing more students than any other school.
From our main offices in Southern California, CSLS operates over 33 locations
with full-service support and classrooms. We have grown to this extent
by providing quality, professional services. In comparison, this provides
7 times the number of convenient locations than the second largest contractor
school.
Contractors State License Services is one of the only contractor schools in
the state that is run by educators, not lawyers or people mostly interested
in the bonding and insurance business. Contractors State License Services
formerly operated under the oversight of the State of California's Bureau
for Private Post Secondary and Vocational Education. As of January 1 2010,
the new Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education (BPPE) came into existence
replacing the BPPVE. CSLS now operates under the provisions of the California
Private Postsecondary Education Act of 2009 (CPPEA), Article 4 Section 94874(f).
