13 Hour CCB Residential Contractor CE: Hot Topics & Best Practices

I really liked all of the topics included.

Good Course with a lot of information. Easy and you can take it on your time as it saves on its own.

Wow! Great Job. I found myself slowing down to take notes and print information that I will use in the future. Nicely surprised. Thank you.

excellent

This course was very helpful and super easy to comprehend

Really good material, e as sy to access too

Loved, loved, loved it! I learned a lot and the format was fantastic! My hippie sister will be super excited to hear more about her dream tiny house!

enjoyed the variety of topics and gained insight and ideas.

Rain water harvesting and tiny houses were newer topics that were quite interesting.

Thank you for making continuing education so accessible to me!

This was very informative and interesting information on many topics I have not explored.

Great course Thanks

AYPO is great! I have struggled with learning and focus my whole life. Partially due to ADD. The courses and entertaining enough to keep my attention. Thank you. Cody ~ Bend, OR

Nicely Laid out course. Broken into sections for easy time management.

the course was great enjoyed all of it

Easy to follow. Nice diversity in subject matter. Able to use my smart phone and go at my own pace.

The course was very complete and comprehensive.

good practical lessons. I might be nice for some new material for the 13 hr course. I believe I did these same lessons 2yrs ago.

Good course covered alot!

It’s good enough for the girls I go out with.

I enjoyed this training. It seemed like it was actually written by contractors.

Good education loved it!

Informational and interesting to read.

The course covers a great overview of construction. It was a good refresher

i loved the dylithiam crystal hammer. comment a star trek fan wrote that and then there was one term that came up called NIMBY.. this was a George Carlin joke in the 90s i will keep taking all my education classes with you guys

I found this course fairly simple to complete and full of great information.

Good information and easy to follow instruction.

The format was very user friendly- I could work at my own pace- The material was interesting and well presented.

Very informative, thank you

Informative and not over done

I enjoyed the breakdown into smaller sections for more info on each topic. I especially like reading about water catchment and tiny house construction. Illustrations made the lessons even better.

I was so glad I choose a little more expensive option to get courses I was more interested in. It was very informative and nice to learn in the comfort of my own time.

really enjoyed the course

easy to follow

Great course. The information kept me interested and was a nice refresher.

Easy to follow.

great, awesome

I found the teachings to be very informative and provided food for thought.

I have used AYPO form the start. Great program and I frequently refer them to fellow contractors. Thanks

Interesting info on micro homes

Excellent videos , pics and explanations.

Educational

Enjoyed the writing of the Ethics course.

Great Course!!

Great. Exactly what I was hoping for.

Course was put together very well and was easy to follow along with.

The course was easy to use and fast. It was also very informative Thanks

I really liked the course on micro homes, though I think that maybe you should make a few of your 13 hour continuing education training sets more geared towards certain types of contractors. For example, we are sewer contractors, I would like to see a 13 hour set of courses that have to do with things we specifically need to know or review that we would actually use. Our specialty type of services are not helped by courses on new building manufacturer, but we could use a course on environmental impacts of sewer vs septic or a course on septic tank decompressioning. Courses that would give us information we may already know because of experience, but have no formal training or information, legal or environmental, that we can quote or show where comes from to a perspective or repeat client. Sometimes people just want to know why, and the answer "just because we always have" just isn't good enough. I'm also positive other construction specialties would like to have courses that are much more geared to things they need to know or information they can use in reality too. You may find if you look to make course groups in that frame of mind, you will find your business expanding, and word of mouth between contractors that share specialties regarding your continued education offerings will increase also, since all of us have to do continued education every two years to renew our licenses.

I liked the topics provided. They are pertinent to what I do.

User friendly

Simple and clear content. Would happily do again.

good course interesting topics

GREAT COURSE!! WILL USE IT AGAIN AND WILL RECOMMEND IT

very nice quick

Very Topical Great Content

it help me a lot

Questions were a very good summary of the information provided in the text.

this was a straight foreword course very thouruough

Very convenient.

Thank You

great information

The corse was easy to navigate and very informative.

Very informative, would use this course again, and happy to recommend it to fellow contractors.

this was a fully loaded course, provides you with the knowledge and tools needed to start your quest on becoming a better contractor.i would recommend this course to anyone with that same goal in mind. thank you

The course is for the most part ok and helpful but is sometimes far from actually accomplishing what is sometimes says it does. For instance after the BEST lesson it suggests you are now ready to do all the things it has taught you and most of those things take hands on experience to actually master. There are some repetition in at least one of the lessons.

It was really helpful and the content was awesome.

Good course

exelent course,it allows me to do it at my own paste.

Perfect for completing my 13 hours

good info

I didn't know that I had to do this much reading otherwise I would've picked something else but other than that it's very good information

Great information presented in an interesting fashion.

Interesting but relevant choice of material. I did appreciate the application of new trends into the education.

very informative

Very well done course.

This covers a lot of material some new and some as a good reminder.

It was pretty informative in some areas I was not as informed about. I found it to be full of useful information.

great course!

Super simple, easy to understand. Just plain wonderful. Second time using AYOP, will continue to use in the future.

Very good and many information to me.

This was a great course.

Enjoyed the information that I have gain. This is something that I will remember Thanks to all. Attaway Davis

I would recommend this course everyone I thought the course was extremely valuable

more videos

Very interesting classes.

I felt that this course was very informational.

Long, please add an option to return back if you want to view when answering questions.

This course allowed me to progress at my own pace, which is very helpful to my business. It is user friendly, concise, and provides the credits I require to continue the work I enjoy as a builder.

I liked how this course trends with the here and now

Got the job done

The course is constructed in a very comprehensible way, containing extremely valuable information.

everything was good easy to understand and straight forward.

A little more guides trough the beginning of course

This course was informational and easy to follow.

Very Informative. I would like to have seen a few more pictures to help with understanding of the information that was presented.

I LEARN A LOT

Gave 4 stars due to an annoying issue with the videos not playing straight through. One 3min video took 30+min to play because it wouldn't play straight through without restarting.

More videos would be great

More illustrations or diagrams could be helpful

The Micro Home course could use more detail about current codes in Portland and examples of tax disadvantages .

Informative and easy to read and understand

I enjoyed the combination of the courses. The rainharvesting course was very detailed and interesting. The drawings/pictures were very beneficial to understanding the material.

Covered some interesting topics that one might consider getting into.

it was ok

Mostly good content, very comprehensive.

A few questions were asked before the corresponding material was presented.

Not very "trade distinctive"

Would love to have more visual aids. Movie clips animations anything other than lots of reading. Many people don't learn well that way

Courses need to be reviewed for apropriate grammar/punctuation.

I like when the course is in videos

Great if you love to read!

I am a Tree Service required to have a CCB. There was quite literally nothing, save contracts, relevant to my profession and i view this a as ploy for the government to gouge more money out of me.

slow and boring...

Some of the material had nothing to do with my area as I am a paint Drywall contractor..maybe more for general contractor

Sections of the course lacked adequate photos/diagrams to illustrate concepts.

I think spending 2 hours learning about tiny houses is a giant waste of time. If someone wants to build them let them do the research don't waste my time on something I want no part of. I also believe it will be a short lived trend because people will always choose the stability of owning there own land over constant travel and uncertainty.

Learning how to build/construct anything by reading paragraphs and paragraphs of text is not helpful. More visuals are needed.

This course has nothing to do with my line of contracting.

Very time consuming

good
