California contractors who passed
The workers compensation and employee questions were confusing at first. The explanations helped me see the difference.
Passed my C-33. The guide has good pictures of surface preparation and coating systems, and that is much easier to remember than a paragraph.
Very good for the business side. Contracts, bonds, and insurance were all explained in a way I could follow.
