HCRA Approved Course for Home Builders and Vendors
The Ontario Building Code (OBC) and Act are daunting documents that are essential to understand and use as construction professionals. In this course you will learn about the history and administration of the code, how to apply it in your day-to-day work, and the responsibilities of the various parties covered by the code and Act.
If you are applying for your HCRA License, successfully completing the exam is required for your application. This exam is a multiple-choice, true/false and multiple-answer format. You must have a copy of the 2012 Ontario Building Codes Compendium (2 Vol) with you for the exam either in printed or PDF format. The exam is available 24/7, an appointment is not needed, and you will have access to complete your exam for 60 days. You will have three (3) attempts to pass the exam. The pass mark is 70%.
If you wish to only take the HCRA Exam, the cost is $125 and you can register here.
