CSLB Licensing Exam Study Guides Now Available in Spanish
The CSLB has updated their “exam study guides” to include Spanish versions for some of the classifications.
They call them “exam study guides” but they’re really just an overview, outline, or breakdown of the exam. But it was nice of them to produce Spanish versions. Will they produce versions in every language so that no one is left out? Who knows!
They’re also going to produce the exams themselves in Spanish. Now that is a brilliant idea! Not sure why it took them decades to make that happen?
Sacramento, CA – The Contractors State License Board (CSLB) has begun publishing Spanish-language versions of its licensing exam study guides. All study guides can be downloaded for free on the Examination Study Guides page of the CSLB website.
As of March 15, 2023, the following exams have study guides also available in Spanish:
- B-2 – Residential Remodeling Contractor
- C-2 – Insulation and Acoustical
- C-4 – Boiler Hot Water Heating and Steam Fitting
- C-5 – Framing and Rough Carpentry
- C-9 – Drywall
- C-22 – Asbestos Abatement
- C-29 – Masonry
- C-31 – Construction Zone Traffic Control
- C-32 – Parking and Highway Improvement

- C-36 – Plumbing
- C-38 – Refrigeration
- C-39 – Roofing
- C-42 – Sanitation Systems
- C-43 – Sheet Metal
- C-45 – Sign
The Spanish study guides for the remaining exams will be released over the next few weeks.
In addition, CSLB is in the process of getting 10 exams translated into Spanish, including the Law and Business, B – General Building, C-8 – Concrete, C-9 – Drywall, C-15 – Flooring and Floor Covering, C-27 – Landscaping, C-33 – Painting and Decorating, C-36 – Plumbing, C-39 – Roofing, and C-54 – Ceramic and Mosaic Tile. This process is expected to be complete later this year. For these exams, Spanish-speaking applicants will take the exam in Spanish rather than using a CSLB-approved translator. Spanish-speaking applicants can still use a translator for the remaining exams that are not being translated.
