For license holders
Your license is an asset. Put it to work.
List any construction or electrical license you are willing to make available as a primary qualifier. Companies that need a qualifier find you here; our staff screen every inquiry and our lawyers document the arrangement.
Why list here
Built to protect the person who holds the license
Private until you say otherwise
Public listings show "First L." and the license category. Your full name, license number and phone are shared only after you approve an introduction.
Screened inquiries
Every inquiry is read by a staff member before you see it. Tire-kickers and license-rental schemes do not get through.
Attorney-prepared agreement
Lawyers on staff draft the qualifying agreement with the authority, access, insurance and indemnity a qualifier needs. You get a separate review call.
Market-rate compensation
Fee, salary, equity or a mix. We see arrangements every day and tell you what is typical for your license and state before you negotiate.
Upload once, reuse forever
Keep your license, ID, credit report and résumé in your dashboard. We pull from it for every application you are part of.
We do the paperwork
Qualifying a business, qualifying an additional business, change of status: we prepare and file it and chase the board.
Who should list
Any construction license, any state
If you hold a state-issued contractor license and are open to serving as a qualifier, list it. That includes:
- Florida certified and registered contractors in every CILB category: general, building, residential, roofing, mechanical, air conditioning, plumbing, pool, underground utility, solar, sheet metal and the specialty categories.
- Florida certified and registered electrical and alarm contractors licensed by the ECLB.
- Qualifying parties, RMOs and RMEs, qualifiers and responsible managing individuals in Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
- Master electricians, master plumbers and HVAC license holders in states that license the trades statewide.
Retired or semi-retired? Many of the best qualifier arrangements involve a contractor who has stepped back from day-to-day building but still wants to supervise and be paid for the license they earned.
What a listing looks like
- 1 Create your free account: name, phone, email and address. Company details are optional.
- 2 Add each license: state, board, category, type, status, availability and the states you are open to.
- 3 Upload your license certificate so our staff can mark the listing verified.
- 4 Review inquiries in your dashboard and approve or decline each introduction.
Honest arrangements only
What a qualifier relationship must be
Every state that licenses contractors through a qualifier requires the qualifier to genuinely supervise and control the work and finances the license covers. Florida's Chapter 489 puts it plainly: the primary qualifying agent has final authority over field work and financial matters. A license that is lent to a company the qualifier does not oversee is not a qualifier arrangement; it is grounds for discipline and, in some states, a crime.
Licenseology brokers only the real version. Our agreements give you the authority and the access to supervise, require the company to keep you informed and insured, and pay you for the responsibility you carry. If a company wants a name on a wall and nothing more, we decline the match.
We verify before we introduce
Staff check your license against the state board, and check the company's entity registration, insurance and history before any introduction. You see the same information we do.
Questions from license holders
Before you list
What does it cost me?
Nothing to list. If you enter an arrangement through Licenseology, the company usually pays our agreement and application fees; your compensation is negotiated between you and the company, with our team telling you what is typical.
Will my name and license number be public?
No. Listings show your first name and last initial, the license category, state, type, experience and availability. Everything else is released only when you approve an introduction.
Can I qualify a company and keep my own business?
Often, yes. Most states allow a qualifier to qualify more than one business with board approval, as long as the qualifier can genuinely supervise each. We check the rule for your state and category before an introduction.
What am I responsible for as a qualifier?
Real supervision of the work and the financial matters your license covers. Our agreement spells that out, gives you the authority and access you need to do it, and includes indemnity and insurance provisions that protect you.
