Download a print-only version of this licensing roadmap and checklist here.

Do you work on or are going to work on LPG systems or are a truck operator for LPG? In Oregon, ALL work done on LPG systems must be completed by persons licensed for LPG work through the Oregon State Fire Marshal (ORS 480.432). This page will help you get your license completed and you ready to work on LPG systems!

To apply for a license, you MUST apply for an exam first. To be eligible for a license, you must take and pass an exam covering LPG rules, laws, the Oregon Fire Code (LPG sections) and NFPA standards for LPG (National Fire Protection Association).

1.Complete the exam application.

• Make sure to check every box that you are needing an exam for.
• A separate exam application is needed for each applicant.
  

2. Submit exam application and fees to the OSFM

• Each application has a $55 fee (not each exam, just each application).
• The OSFM will process your application and send an e‑mail with Workday (the exam system) account creation information.

3. Create exam account

• Follow the link from the email the OSFM sent you to create an account in Workday.

4. Tell the OSFM through e‑mail that your Workday account has been created!

• Workday won’t tell us, so we need you to!
• Log in and out of Workday to confirm it has been set up.
• Don’t forget your Workday login information!
• When you tell us it’s needed, we will assign the exam to you, and you have 30 days to complete it.

5. Take the exam in Workday

• You need an 80% to pass – good luck!
• If you don’t pass, restart at step 1.
• If you pass, save the completion certificate (you don’t want to lose it!).

6. Tell us you passed

• Workday won’t tell us, so you need to!
• Email us at osfm.lp@osfm.oregon.gov so we can send you a license application.
