CERTIFIED BUSINESS LICENSE OFFICIAL

Utah Business Licensing Association (UBLA) is continuing its effort to certify its members as Business

Licensing Officials. The basic criterion for certification is based upon the following stipulations and

accumulated requirements:

• Be an active and current member of the Utah Business Licensing Association.
• Complete 22 hours of educational instruction as identified and approved by members of the Utah Business Licensing Association.

• 8 hour Regulatory Licensing
• 2 hours Case Law/Constitutional Law
• 3 hours Business License Enforcement
• 3 hours Sales & Temporary Sales Taxes
• 3 hours Alcohol Licensing
• 3 hours Ethics & Customer Service

• Be actively engaged in the issuance of business licenses within the jurisdiction you represent.

There are no fees for certification; however, an application is required. The application has space for

you to enter the training hours you have received.

The certification will be valid for a four (4) year period from the date of issuance. After that time you

will need to update your certification by listing the continuing education and/or training accomplished

within the previous four (4) year period. Attending conferences offered by the UBLA will assist

individuals to maintain proficiency and continuing education in the licensing field.

For individuals who entity only permits one person per year to attend a conference, a review of hours

accumulated and hours required will be reviewed on a case-by-case. (Documentation from your entity

will be required.)
