Code books are not included in the price of the course and may be purchased from CCI or any vendor or your choice.

Code books purchased from CCI for students attending the current CCI series of classes include heavy duty three-ring mylar tabbed chapter dividers. Code books and dividers will be delivered to class for free, if purchased by the Thursday before classes start.

Ordering books after the Thursday before classes start will incur a delivery fee.

If purchasing your IBC or IRC from another vendor, we suggest you purchase the loose-leaf versions, because we organize them so that they are “exam ready.”

“Exam ready” books have sections and amendments added directly into the books to minimize time locating information.  In addition, the order in which they are assembled is changed to make locating information easier.   Finally, sections of the code that are not applicable to our preparation are removed to eliminate any confusion on which section to use when locating information.   Full page tabbed chapter dividers, included free with our discounted book bundled, provide a space to make critical information notes that relate to a chapter. This all builds a framework for a more logical flow of information and a deeper understanding of the code in a shorter time.

Soft cover versions of the code cost less, but are substantially less effective for locating information quickly, for all the reasons stated in the paragraph above. During the exam, quick is the key ..."exam ready" turns that key and saves substantial time locating the information needed.

If you have soft cover versions of the codes, we suggest that you shave the binding off and drill three holes in them so you may put them into a three-ring binder. The binder for the IBC should be one-half inch or more wider than required for inserting the altered soft cover code, to accommodate the materials we will be giving you to organize your book. Similarly, the binder for the IRC should be be slightly wider than required for inserting the altered soft cover code. Some Staples stores have the capability of shaving the binding and drilling the three holes need for the three-ring binder.
