Where this bond fits

Oregon ties contractor license renewal to continuing education. The Construction Contractors Board sets the course requirements, and under ORS 701.267 it may enter into agreements with approved continuing education providers, weigh instructor qualifications and attendance verification when approving them, and charge fees for provider and course approvals.

This listing is a $20,000 surety bond in that system. A surety bond of this kind guarantees that the principal named on it meets the obligations the obligee attaches to it, and gives the obligee a way to recover up to the bond amount if it does not. The exact conditions are set by the bond form the obligee requires.

Confirm before the bond is issued

Ask the CCB Education section to confirm the obligee wording, the current bond form and how the bond should be filed. The section can be reached at 503-934-2227 or ccb.education@ccb.oregon.gov. Have the business name on the bond match the name on your CCB paperwork exactly.
