What is the continuing education requirement for Michigan residential builders to maintain their license?
Correct Answer
B) 21 hours every 3 years
Michigan requires 21 hours of continuing education every 3 years for residential builders to maintain their license.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
Michigan requires residential builders to complete 21 hours of continuing education every 3-year license cycle. This is the state-mandated requirement under Michigan's Occupational Code for licensed residential builders.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option A: 30 hours every 3 years
30 hours every 3 years overstates the requirement. No Michigan statute sets 30 hours as the continuing education threshold for residential builders.
Option C: 6 hours every 3 years
6 hours every 3 years greatly understates the requirement and may be confused with a minimal annual CE requirement in another profession or state.
Option D: 12 hours every 3 years
12 hours every 3 years is exactly half the correct answer and is a common distractor that students may confuse with the 21-hour requirement.
Memory Technique
Michigan = 21. Think of the legal drinking age (21) in the United States. Michigan builders must 'come of age' with 21 CE hours every 3 years before they can keep their license active.
