According to Louisiana R.S. 37:2150, which of the following is NOT required for contractor license renewal?
Correct Answer
D) Re-examination every three years
Louisiana contractor licenses require continuing education, insurance proof, and fees for renewal, but do not require re-examination every three years.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
Re-examination every three years is not required under Louisiana R.S. 37:2150. Once a contractor passes the licensing exam, they are not required to retake it at renewal intervals. The renewal process focuses on continuing education, insurance maintenance, and fee payment.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option A: Continuing education credits
Continuing education credits ARE required for license renewal in Louisiana. Contractors must complete mandatory CE hours to demonstrate they are staying current with code and regulatory changes.
Option B: Proof of workers' compensation insurance
Proof of workers' compensation insurance IS required at renewal. Louisiana law requires contractors to maintain and demonstrate active workers' comp coverage to protect employees on job sites.
Option C: Payment of renewal fees
Payment of renewal fees IS required. All Louisiana contractor licenses require timely fee payment as a condition of maintaining an active license status.
Memory Technique
Think of renewal as 3 C's: Continuing Ed + Coverage (insurance) + Cash (fees). Re-examination is NOT one of the C's — you already passed the test once.
