How licensing works in Tennessee
State contractor license qualified by an individual. Contractor licenses above the threshold are issued to the company through a qualifying agent who passed the trade and business-and-law exams.
The term Tennessee uses for the individual who qualifies a company is qualifying agent. Whatever the label, the duty is the same everywhere: the qualifier must actually supervise and have authority over the work and the business affairs the license covers. A license that is merely lent to a company is not a qualifier arrangement and exposes both parties to discipline.
