Oregon
Oregon is an SAA state and is not right-to-work — it has strong union density in construction. The Construction Contractors Board (CCB) registers all contractors; electrical licensing is administered through the Dept. of Consumer and Business Services Building Codes Division separately. Oregon uses the Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC).

Apprenticeship system.
Oregon is a State Apprenticeship Agency (SAA) state — it runs its own apprenticeship system separately from the federal RAPIDS database. Rules, reporting, and enforcement happen at the state level. You may see different program standards than a neighboring RAPIDS state.
