Thank you for your feedback—and I’m sorry for the confusion with your book set. One of the books is currently on backorder and will ships separately as soon as it arrives. Occasionally, backorders occur when we are waiting on inventory from the publisher. A backorder notice should have been included inside the box, and we apologize if it was missing or overlooked. If you’d like, please contact us at support@contractortrainingcenter.com or 888-858-7350 with your order number so we can confirm the status right away. You’ll receive an email with tracking information as soon as the book ships.

Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We’re thrilled to hear you had an excellent experience in our Virginia 8-hour Pre-License course. We work hard to make the class clear, engaging, and easy to follow, so it means a lot to know it delivered for you. Wishing you the best as you move forward with your licensing—please reach out anytime if we can help! You can reach us at support@contractortrainingcenter.com or 888-858-7350.

Class is relatively boring with long modules. You all could have someone reading the slides with less of a southern dialect. I'm from the south too. We don't all need to sound like we speak with gum stuck to the roof of our mouth. Overall a generally boring class with minimal information. Add some real world examples. Problems to go over. Actual estimating stuff rather than just talking about estimating or bidding. It's all the same with these two hour elective courses. They don't teach any real world knowledge.

Thank you for the feedback. I’m sorry the course felt boring and not practical enough for what you were looking for. Because this is an NC CE elective, the content is built to meet NC requirements, which does set limits on scope and format. Still, we agree that more real-world estimating examples and practice problems would improve the experience, and we’re reviewing updates that stay within NC CE guidelines.

Send Meeting Requirements Ahead of Time
I wish they would've made it clear that you cannot be in a parked car for the meeting. I travel for work and the requirements were not made clear until the meeting started. I read the emails that I received and tested my zoom settings ahead of time. They could've easily included the camera and location requirements in those notifications.
I understand driving not being allowed and trying to create a focused environment for class. Please make the stipulations that go above and beyond that clear ahead of time.
They did let me reschedule but the other times are far less convenient.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry for the inconvenience you experienced—especially given your work travel and the effort you made to prepare in advance. To clarify, the camera and location requirements (including not attending from a parked car) are not policies we set internally. They are mandated by the State of North Carolina licensing board for course delivery and attendance verification, and we’re required to enforce them to keep the class valid for credit. We appreciate your understanding, and we’re glad our team was able to offer a reschedule—even though the alternate times were less convenient. If you’d like, please reach out to us directly and we’ll do our best to help you find the best available option going forward.

Presentations do not match books that go with it. I’m not even sure if what is in the training program is applicable at all and I can’t reference many of the information in the book.

Reply from Contractor Training Center
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We want to clarify that our prep questions and answers are not the same as those found on the actual state exam, as we do not have access to the exact questions. Our goal is to help students navigate their course materials, understand how to locate information in the books and build confidence in applying that knowledge. In addition to practice questions, our course includes an Exam Tips & Strategies module, a New Student Orientation webinar, and a live one-hour weekly webinar where students can ask questions directly to an instructor. We encourage students to take full advantage of these resources, as they are designed to support exam readiness and overall success. If you have any questions, you can reach us at support@contractortrainingcenter.com or 888-858-7350. We are always here to help!

All the questions were the exact same…
All the questions were the exact same after the first day. I feel like I paid money for 35 questions when I know there are more on the exam I should be ready for.
Clarification After Response: The amount of questions on the MHIC is 58, not 55. I was referring to the amount of study questions provided by Contractor Training Center, which accumulated to 37. Based on the amount of potential questions on the actual MHIC exam, I felt the small amount of questions provided was subpar. After taking the actual MHIC exam, I can firmly state, this program does NOT properly prepare you for this particular exam.

Thank you for your feedback. We'd like to clarify that the MHIC course has 55 questions, not 35. We are also actively working on expanding the question back do students will see different questions each time they access the course, helping reinforce learning and avoid repetition. Our program is designed to teach the concepts and help students learn how to navigate the required textbook/materials, so they feel confident when taking the state exam. We do not have access to the state’s actual exam questions, and we are not permitted to recreate or mirror them, so the questions in our course will not be identical to what appears on the official test. That said, we take concerns like yours seriously. If you’re willing, please contact us directly with the areas you felt were most different or where you wanted more practice, and we’ll help you create a focused study plan and point you to the sections that align with the exam content outline.
We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. We are always working to improve the learning experience. If you need anything in the future or have any questions, you can reach us at support@contractortrainingcenter.com or 888-858-7350. We are always here to help!
Not satisfied
I paid for the continuing education, took the class and the test. You have not turned that info in to the VADPOR. They have no proof that I have 3 hours of continuing education to renew my license.

Reply from Contractor Training Center
We’re sorry for the confusion and the delay showing your CE with DPOR. Your course completion can only be reported once we receive the required license details from the post-course survey. In this case, that survey was not submitted with your license information, so we were unable to report your hours right away.
As soon as we saw the issue, we emailed you to collect the missing details, and once we received them we submitted your 3 hours to DPOR immediately. If it is still not reflecting on your DPOR record, please contact us at support@contractortrainingcenter.com or 888-858-7350 and we will verify the submission and provide confirmation for your records.
