Building Code

Our Building Code subject explores many aspects of the Ontario Building Code, including accessibility construction. Here, you will find courses and programs that offer detailed technical training as well as overviews for experienced building practitioners who are planning to write the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing (MMAH) BCIN Building Code exams. Once you have completed at least one Building Code course, you will be eligible for a free one-year student membership with the Ontario Building Officials Association (OBOA).

A new edition of the Ontario Building Code went into effect on Wednesday, January 1, 2025. Courses and self-study manuals for the 2024 Building Code are currently being updated with an expected launch date of Spring 2025. In the meantime, the 2012 courses will continue to be offered as the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing 2012 BCIN exams will be available until the fall of 2025.
