While a trade exam tests technical knowledge connected to a specific classification, the Business and Law exam measures whether a candidate understands the administrative and legal side of contracting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis package is built around the approved references used for the New Mexico Business and Law exam. The NASCLA Business book gives candidates a foundation in business planning, business start-up, business structures, insurance, management, estimating, contracts, scheduling, project management, safety, environmental responsibilities, financial management, tax basics, and lien laws. The New Mexico-specific materials help candidates focus on the state laws and regulations tied directly to New Mexico contractor licensing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the New Mexico Business and Law exam is open book, preparation should include more than reading the references. Candidates need to understand the subject matter and know how to locate information efficiently during a timed exam. The highlighted and tabbed NASCLA exam book supports faster study and reference navigation, while the course and flash cards provide structure and reinforcement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Complete Pass Package is a strong choice for candidates who want a practical study system instead of scattered materials. The book helps you study the source content, the New Mexico law and regulation materials support state-specific review, the flash cards help reinforce key concepts, and the online course gives you a more organized path through the material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eWhat You Get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHighlighted and Tabbed NASCLA Exam Book:\u003c\/strong\u003e Basic NASCLA Contractors’ Guide to Business, Law and Project Management.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNew Mexico-Specific Law \u0026amp; Regulation Materials:\u003c\/strong\u003e NMAC Title 14, Chapter 6, Part 3 and NMSA Chapter 60, Article 13.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlash Cards:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flash cards based on the NASCLA Business book to help reinforce business, law, and project management concepts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOnline New Mexico Business \u0026amp; Law Exam Prep Course:\u003c\/strong\u003e Online course access designed to support structured preparation for the New Mexico Business and Law exam.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpen-Book Navigation Support:\u003c\/strong\u003e Highlighting and tabs help candidates become more familiar with the reference layout before exam day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eState-Focused Review:\u003c\/strong\u003e Study support that includes New Mexico licensing requirements, contractor law, business organization, estimating, bidding, contracts, taxes, labor, project management, lien law, risk management, environmental responsibilities, and safety topics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eExam Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe New Mexico Business and Law Examination is part of the contractor licensing examination process for the State of New Mexico. The Construction Industries Division of the New Mexico Regulation and Licensing Department works with PSI for contractor examination approval and testing. Candidates must be preapproved before taking an examination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor contractors, New Mexico requires candidates to either pass the Business and Law examination offered by PSI or take an approved Business and Law course. Candidates who choose the exam path must prepare for a business and law test that covers both general contractor business management topics and New Mexico-specific licensing law and regulation content.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe New Mexico Business and Law exam has 50 questions. The required passing score is 75%, which equals 38 points. The time allowed is 130 minutes. The exam is computer-based and is administered through PSI testing services.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe exam content outline includes licensing requirements, estimating and bidding, business organization and financial management, tax laws, labor laws, project management and lien law, contracts, risk management, and environmental and safety topics. These subject areas reflect the business knowledge contractors need when applying for and operating under a New Mexico contractor license.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe listed exam references include the \u003cem\u003eNASCLA Contractors Guide to Business, Law and Project Management, Basic 14th Edition\u003c\/em\u003e, the New Mexico Construction Industries Licensing Act, NMSA Chapter 60, Article 13, and New Mexico Contractor’s License Requirement, NMAC Title 14, Chapter 6, Part 3. This package includes the NASCLA book highlighted and tabbed, the New Mexico-specific law and regulation materials, flash cards, and the online New Mexico Business \u0026amp; Law Exam Prep Course.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eOpen Book Test\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe New Mexico Business and Law exam is an open book test. Candidates may use the approved references in the examination center, including the NASCLA Business book and the listed New Mexico law and regulation materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen book does not mean the exam is easy. Candidates still have 50 questions to complete within 130 minutes. The test requires both content knowledge and the ability to locate information quickly. Candidates who wait until exam day to learn where topics appear in the references may lose valuable time searching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe highlighted and tabbed NASCLA exam book included in this package is designed to support open-book preparation. Highlighting helps important material stand out during study, while tabs help separate major topic areas so the book is easier to navigate. These tools are most helpful when used consistently during the study process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReference materials must be bound. They may be highlighted, underlined, and indexed before the examination session. Reference materials containing writing are not allowed into the examination. Candidates may not write in their references during the exam session. Additional loose or attached papers are not permitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo prepare for an open-book exam, candidates should practice finding answers in the book and state materials. After completing a course lesson, locate the related topic in the NASCLA guide. After reviewing flash cards, use the book to connect the concept to the source material. This builds the lookup speed and reference familiarity needed for timed testing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eLicensing Steps\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContractor candidates in New Mexico should begin by identifying the license classification they are pursuing. New Mexico contractor licensing may involve both a trade-specific examination and the Business and Law requirement. The correct exam path depends on the classification and the licensing requirements set by the Construction Industries Division.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCandidates must be preapproved before taking any contractor examination. Once eligibility is approved, the candidate is responsible for scheduling the exam through PSI and following the examination instructions. Eligibility is time-sensitive, so candidates should plan their study and scheduling carefully after approval.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContractor candidates must either pass the Business and Law exam offered by PSI or take an approved Business and Law course. Candidates who take the exam must also complete any trade examination required for their classification. The Business and Law exam and the trade exam must be completed within the required licensing timeline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis package supports the Business and Law exam preparation stage by providing the NASCLA reference, New Mexico law and regulation materials, flash cards, and online course review. It does not replace the licensing application, preapproval process, trade exam requirements, or final approval by the State of New Mexico.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter passing the required examination or completing the approved course option, candidates must still satisfy the applicable licensing requirements. These may include application review, classification approval, documentation, fees, bonding, financial responsibility requirements, qualifying party requirements, or other state licensing steps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eState Requirements\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew Mexico contractor licensing is administered through the Construction Industries Division of the New Mexico Regulation and Licensing Department. The Business and Law requirement exists because contractors must understand more than technical field work. They also need knowledge of licensing obligations, business management, state rules, financial responsibilities, contracts, taxes, labor requirements, liens, risk management, environmental duties, and safety responsibilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe New Mexico Business and Law exam includes state-specific content. NMSA Chapter 60, Article 13 covers the New Mexico Construction Industries Licensing Act. NMAC Title 14, Chapter 6, Part 3 covers New Mexico contractor license requirements. These materials are important because state-specific law and regulation can override general reference content when requirements differ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCandidates should prepare for both national business management concepts and New Mexico-specific licensing rules. The NASCLA guide helps build a broad foundation in contractor business operations. The New Mexico law and regulation materials help candidates review the state-specific rules that apply to contractor licensing in New Mexico.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Complete Pass Package is focused on the New Mexico Business and Law exam. Candidates pursuing a contractor license may also need a trade exam and must follow the full New Mexico licensing process for the classification they are seeking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eReference Books\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Book: Basic NASCLA Contractors’ Guide to Business, Law and Project Management\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis NASCLA reference covers business planning, business start-up, business structures, licensing, insurance, management, marketing, estimating, contract management, scheduling, project management, safety, environmental responsibilities, financial management, tax basics, lien laws, personnel topics, subcontractor relationships, customer relationships, and contractor business operations.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Material: New Mexico Construction Industries Licensing Act, NMSA Chapter 60, Article 13\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis New Mexico-specific law material supports review of the state licensing act used for the New Mexico Business and Law exam.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Material: New Mexico Contractor’s License Requirement, NMAC Title 14, Chapter 6, Part 3\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis New Mexico-specific regulation material supports review of contractor licensing requirements used for the New Mexico Business and Law exam.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eExam Room Approved Books\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNASCLA Contractors Guide to Business, Law and Project Management, Basic 14th Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is the NASCLA business, law, and project management reference listed for the New Mexico Business and Law exam.

Licensing requirements make up an important part of the exam because candidates must understand the rules connected to contractor licensing. The New Mexico-specific materials in this package help candidates review the state statutes and regulations tied to those licensing requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEstimating and bidding topics focus on the process of preparing project pricing, reviewing scope, understanding costs, and submitting bids responsibly. Business organization and financial management topics address how a contracting business is structured, operated, documented, and financially managed. These areas matter because contractors must understand both project performance and business administration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTax law and labor law topics are also part of the exam. Contractors may need to understand payroll responsibilities, tax basics, employee-related requirements, and labor-related obligations. These subjects affect daily business operations and can create serious problems when ignored.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProject management and lien law topics connect business management to construction performance and payment rights. Candidates should understand project coordination, scheduling, documentation, communication, and lien-related concepts. Contract topics are also heavily represented because contracts define responsibilities, scope, payment terms, performance requirements, changes, and dispute issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRisk management topics may include insurance, bonding, liability awareness, and steps contractors use to reduce business exposure. Environmental and safety topics address jobsite responsibility, documentation, and regulatory awareness. Even though this is a Business and Law exam, safety and environmental issues remain important parts of contractor operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flash cards included in this package help candidates review important concepts in a more active way. Flash cards can be used between course sessions, during short study blocks, or as quick refreshers before timed practice. Repeated review helps strengthen familiarity with key business, law, and project management terms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Online New Mexico Business \u0026amp; Law Exam Prep Course gives candidates a structured path through the material. Instead of opening the book and trying to decide where to begin, candidates can use the course to organize study around the exam topics. The course works best when paired with active reference practice in the highlighted and tabbed NASCLA book and review of the New Mexico-specific materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the best results, study in layers. First, work through a course topic. Then locate that topic in the NASCLA guide. Next, review any related New Mexico law or regulation material. Finally, use the flash cards to test your memory and reinforce the concept. This approach helps connect general business content with New Mexico-specific exam requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eHow Contractor Exam Prep Helps You Reach Your Goal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContractor Exam Prep helps New Mexico contractor candidates prepare with an organized study system built around the real demands of open-book licensing exams.

Highlighting draws attention to important material, while tabs make it easier to move between sections during study and timed practice. This supports the open-book skills candidates need for exam day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe New Mexico-specific law and regulation materials help candidates focus on the state content that matters for licensing. General business knowledge is important, but New Mexico contractor candidates also need to review the state licensing act and contractor license requirements used for the exam.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flash cards add another layer of preparation by helping candidates review key concepts repeatedly. The online course gives the study process structure, helping candidates move through the material in a more focused way instead of studying randomly. Together, the course, flash cards, NASCLA book, and New Mexico materials create a practical preparation system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContractor Exam Prep’s goal is to help candidates prepare with better organization, stronger study habits, and more confidence using the approved references.
