ICC Certified Building Official (CBO) Exam Prep Course
This online course is designed to prepare you for success on all three Certified Building Official (CBO) exams: Legal, Management, and Codes/Standards. With 24 months of online access, you’ll have all the prerecorded lessons, book highlights, quizzes, simulated exams, and instructor support you need to study at your own pace.
In addition, you’re welcome to join our live classes—either in person at our Hudson classroom or via live webinar—at no additional charge if they fall within your access period. Attendance at a live class is not required since all exam prep content is available online, but CE credit will only be given for live classroom or live webinar attendance. You can register for any live classes in your student locker after you purchase the course.
The upcoming live class dates are (subject to change):
January 24-25, 2026 (Sat-Sun)
March 14-15, 2026 (Sat-Sun)
May 9-10, 2026 (Sat-Sun)
July 11-12, 2026 (Sat-Sun)
September 26-27, 2026 (Sat-Sun)
The course is based on the 2018 and 2021 International Codes.
Your 24-month access begins the day you enroll. Additional one-year increments may be purchased with a retake fee of $550. Please note, ICC requires all three exams to be completed within 18 months of taking your first exam.
