About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Oregon's Construction Contractors Board (CCB) approves the organizations that teach the continuing-education courses licensed contractors must complete. As a condition of becoming an approved provider, the CCB requires a $20,000 surety bond — a backstop that the provider runs its courses honestly and as approved.

It's a three-party arrangement: the provider (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Oregon, through the CCB (the obligee). The bond protects the Board and the contractors who take the courses against losses from the provider violating the CE-provider rules.

The bond must stay active for as long as you are an approved provider. Let it lapse and your provider approval can be suspended — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $20,000 filing continuous.

OAR chapter 812, division 22 (CCB)The Construction Contractors Board adopted its continuing-education provider rules under OAR chapter 812, division 22, pursuant to Oregon Laws 2013, chapter 718. An approved continuing-education provider must maintain a $20,000 surety bond for the benefit of the CCB. Confirm the current bond requirement and form with the Board, as administrative rules are amended from time to time.

How much is the Oregon CE provider bond?The premium is $200 flat — set by our carrier's rate book for this bond, the same for every provider. The $20,000 bond amount is set by the CCB rule, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $20,000?No. You pay $200. The $20,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.

When does it renew?The bond must stay active for as long as you are an approved provider. Buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, so your approval never lapses over a missed email.
Which A-rated carriers underwrite these bonds?Typically Arch Insurance Company (A.M. Best A+) or Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (A.M. Best A). Which one writes your bond depends on the bond type and your state. The carrier's name and official signature are printed on the bond you receive.
