​​​Online Services Upgrades

In an effort to better serve you, the Department of Safety and Professional Services has moved all Division of Industry Services programs to our upgraded online system, the Electronic Safety and Licensing Application known as eSLA. eSLA allows you to complete all of your applications, submissions, renewals, and payments related to your credential, permit, or plan review online.

Previous account information has been migrated to eSLA but all customers must complete registration on eSLA in order to link existing information from the old system to the customer's eSLA account. ​New customers will need to create an account before submitting plans or permits. The eSLA Customer Portal Log In video provides a quick walkthrough of the process.

To help you prepare for the transition, we offered a live, eSLA training webinar on Friday, April 2, 2021. Thank you to those who were able to attend! The eSLA Webinar & Demo was recorded and is available on demand, along with the webinar slides presented during the webinar. Our office is in the process of responding to the questions raised at the webinar and we encourage all customers to view the presentation. ​​​

​​Visit the ​​eSLA User Gu​ides and Videos page for program-specific user guides and videos to assist you in navigating the new system.
