West Virginia: how to get licensed
West Virginia contractors are licensed by the West Virginia Division of Labor — Contractor Licensing. For the classifications we sell here, applicants typically sit a trade paper plus a separate West Virginia Business & Law paper. Confirm whether your classification is one sitting or two.
Choose the classification below. The next page walks the path for that license, then stays on this site: our state hub and the matching prep.

Business exam (a second paper, not a trade)
This is not a plumbing, electrical, or building license. Many states make you pass this and a trade exam. Use it if you only need the business paper, or after you pick a trade.
