About the Bureau of Construction Codes
The dedicated staff of the Bureau of Construction Codes (BCC) work as a team to assure that the built environment and the systems within are sound, safe and sanitary; building users' health, safety and welfare are protected; and that, through a coordinated program of code compliance, investigation and training, there is consistent application of standards.
LARA received over 16,000 survey responses from licensees across three of our highest volume bureaus: Professional Licensing, Construction Codes, and Corporations, Securities & Commercial Licensing. Our Cutting Red Tape Report outlines nearly 80 recommendations to reduce barriers to licensure, streamline processes, and better serve the people of Michigan.

On March 12, 2024, the State of Michigan adopted the 2021 Michigan Mechanical Code, the 2021 Michigan Plumbing Code, and the 2023 Michigan Electrical Code. Beginning August 1, 2024, these examinations will be based on those new codes. Regardless of when your application was approved, any exam scheduled after this date will reflect the updated code questions.
After August 1, to obtain an updated customer information bulletin (CIB) that outlines the new exam requirements and PSI contact information, please visit PSI Examinations (michigan.gov).
