Industry Expert Contractors Needed in Central Valley
CSLB's Industry Expert Program (IEP) is recruiting licensed contractors in several Central Valley regions to provide a variety of essential services that assist CSLB's Enforcement division with consumer complaint investigations. Industry Experts (IEs) are being sought from Fresno, Kern, Kings, Madera, Mariposa, Merced, Stanislaus, and Tulare counties.
IEP is comprised of a statewide pool of licensed tradespeople who serve as independent consultants and are compensated by the board for their time. IEs have a unique opportunity to help ensure that construction safety and industry standards are being met. An IE inspects projects and prepares reports that provide unbiased professional opinions to help protect the public from unscrupulous licensed and unlicensed contractors. An IE also may be called upon to testify in arbitration and/or administrative hearings.
IEs must be licensed and in good standing with five (5) years of experience as the license qualifier, and have no legal actions against them within the past seven (7) years to qualify for the program.
