Code change and OIC renewal requirements
All BCD inspector certification holders are required to complete a code change class provided by the division to maintain their active certification. The division prepares online training videos and supplementary materials showing the substantial changes to each newly adopted code.
Current code change cycle
The Oregon Energy Efficiency Specialty Code (OEESC) became effective on Jan. 1, 2025, with a six-month phase-in period ending July 1, 2025.
All certification holders must demonstrate that they have completed the required code update training and self-certify by June 1, 2026. Self-certification forms received and dated after June 1, 2026, will result in the certification expiring.
