Included with every course

Classroom Helper: a contractor exam study chat that cites its source

Ask a question in plain words and get an explanation built from the material in your classroom: your trade's practice questions, the Learning Hub lessons, the Law and Business material, and verified CSLB facts. Every answer ends with the source.

What it answers

  • Trade questions for the course you bought: code sections, calculations, procedures, safety rules, and why a practice answer is correct.
  • Law and Business questions, which every paid account includes.
  • Exam process facts from CSLB pages: scheduling through PSI, the 21-day wait after a failed exam, the 18-month window, what to bring.
  • How the classroom works: modes, narration voices, devices, Spanish edition, support.

How it stays honest

The Helper only answers from the material it is given. It is trade-specific: it searches the question bank and lessons of the trades on your account plus Law and Business, never another trade. When the material does not cover a question, it says so and points you to the classroom section or the official CSLB page instead of guessing.

  • It never quotes fees, prices, or dollar amounts. CSLB and PSI set those, and the Helper sends you to their pages.
  • It never promises a pass and never uses words like guaranteed or best. It keeps the conversation on your course material.
  • It never decides whether you personally qualify for a license. That is CSLB's decision.
  • Every finished answer is checked by the same rules before it is shown; an answer that breaks them is replaced with a short reply that points to CSLB and PSI.
  • Enacted California code sections and official CSLB publications are quoted with their section number. Third-party reference books in the library are explained in the Helper's own words and cited, not copied.

Who gets it and how to open it

The Helper is included with any course purchase. It is not available on free accounts or the free trial classrooms. Sign in, then open your classroom and use the Helper button (the Contractors Classroom logo) in its bottom-right corner.

Your conversations are saved with your account so you can reopen them, and you can delete any of them from the Helper. Each account gets 30 Helper questions a day for the whole 6-month access period; the counter under the chat shows how many are left today. English and Spanish are both supported.

Privacy

When you ask a question, our server sends the question, the recent messages of that conversation, and the matching course-material excerpts to an artificial-intelligence provider that writes the reply. Your name and email are not sent. Do not type personal information into the Helper. Details are in the Privacy Policy, section 2.8.
