    How does the NASCLA Commercial General Building Contractor exam work?

    The NASCLA Commercial General Building Contractor license comes from the Nevada State Contractors Board. You apply to the NSCB with your experience and financial statement, the Board sends an exam eligibility letter, and you book the CMS and the trade exam with PSI. Scores come right after the exam.

    • Nevada accepts a passing NASCLA Commercial General Building score in place of the B trade exam; the CMS is still required.
    • Every Nevada contractor license needs the Business and Law (CMS) exam plus a trade exam for the classification, both given by PSI.
    • The CMS is open book with the Construction Business and Law Manual for Nevada; trade exams are closed book except for the code references their outline allows.
    • PSI charges $95 for one exam portion, or $140 for a trade exam taken with the CMS, and you get three attempts before the application is void.
    • Nevada accepts a passing NASCLA Commercial General Building exam in place of the B trade exam, and since March 2026 issues a B-7 Restricted License for jobs up to $7,000.
