  • click “acknowledge.” This means you will either have to mail the documents yourself or request the “third-party” mail the document(s) directly to the Board office.
    • Examples of “third-party forms” are transcripts from schools, employment verifications from a supervisor, and license verifications from another state.

When you have been approved to take the Board-approved exam, the Board Office will notify you by email. For more information about the exam, see the Examinations webpage and section 5.0 of the Board’s Rules and Regulations.

The person or entity who maintains the surety bond or irrevocable letter of credit or who maintains the liability insurance is responsible for all acts or omissions of the licensed installer and also those supervised by the installer or assisting the installer in the installation of manufactured housing.
