ATTENTION: New Plumbing Examination & Application Process

[DOPL Trades Licensing]

Greetings,

The Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses (DOPL) is pleased to announce our new partnership IAPMO and Professional Service Industries (PSI) for examination services! This collaboration introduces a more efficient process for obtaining your Plumbing Journeyman license.

Examination and Application Procedures
Effective on 9/4/2024, applicants for this license will be required to take and pass the applicable IAPMO examination before applying for licensure with DOPL. Once applicants pass the examination, the score will be sent directly to DOPL, significantly reducing processing wait times. Additionally, partnering with PSI has increased the number of available seats and testing sites throughout the state, allowing candidates to quickly schedule and complete exams with shorter wait times. The exam content is based on the 2015 UPC, and the exam fee is still $75. You may schedule an exam online here: https://www.psiexams.com

NOTE: For those currently scheduled for an examination through DOPL, you may contact our office by emailing tradelicensing at dopl.idaho.gov<mailto:tradelicensing at dopl.idaho.gov> and request a refund of your examination fee if you prefer to schedule through PSI as their availability may allow for you to test sooner.

New Applications
To support this change, DOPL will have updated the application for the Plumbing Journeyman license. This new application will be available online at https://dopl.idaho.gov/plb/plb-licensing as of 9/4/2024.

Attached is an FAQ that will provide additional information about this new process. We believe these improvements will make the licensing process more efficient and convenient for everyone. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Best regards,
Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses (DOPL)
