Advance your career in the construction industry! Classes are open to anyone with an interest in construction and mandatory for those desiring licensure in any UCC area. UCC classes may have up to 75% tuition reimbursement upon successful completion of the course.
We offer courses that meet the education requirements for licensure of New Jersey technical assistants. The NJ Department of Community Affairs DCA, pursuant to NJAC 5:23 UCC regulations, oversees licensing.
Tuition reimbursement may be available for partial refund of tuition. To be eligible, you must complete the UCC course successfully and have a log number or a UCC license.
Upon applying for a license and paying the application fee, the Licensing Unit gives the log number. The college collects tuition reimbursement information and submits it to the DCA. Call the DCA’s Licensing Unit at 609-984-7834 for information.
