How do I obtain a license?
In Kansas, licenses are administered on a county level and not a state level. Contact your local licensing board to submit an application.
Most counties require plumbers to complete continuing education to renew their licenses. The required topics and number of hours vary between counties. Check with your local licensing authority for the most accurate information regarding continuing education. Reciprocity agreements exist between many counties in Kansas. Contact your local city, county, or jurisdiction to find out where your license has reciprocity agreements.
With RocketCert, our education is written by a combination of professional educators and industry professionals. We pride ourselves on providing industry leading customer service. Also, if you find a better original price on any online course that we offer, we will beat it by 10%.
Preparing to pass the Standard Mechanical exam is a critical part of the licensing process. Failing the exam can result in substantial delays before you are able to work under your license. We offer industry leading exam prep and all of the required books, at an unbeatable price.
After studying with RocketCert, you will be on your way to passing the required State exam(s) (see below). Contact Pearson at 877-234-6082 to begin this process. Testing centers are setup throughout the State in larger cities.
After completing all the steps above, it will be time to apply through your local city, county, or jurisdiction to obtain your Kansas Mechanical License.
