Join Our Qualifying Agent Network
Put your license to work. Contractor Licensing Inc. connects experienced, licensed contractors with companies across the country who need a qualifying agent. Join our nationwide database and get matched with placement opportunities that fit your schedule and goals.
What Is a Qualifying Agent?
A qualifying agent is a licensed individual who lends their experience, exam credentials, and board approval to a company so it can legally hold a contractor license. Companies that don't yet have a principal who meets state licensing requirements rely on qualifying agents to operate legally — and they're compensated for it.
If you hold an active contractor license, you may be sitting on an untapped source of income. Many of our qualifiers earn steady monthly compensation simply for maintaining their license status and fulfilling qualifier responsibilities.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be an owner of the company I qualify for?
No. You can act as a qualifying agent without holding ownership or an officer title. If you're not an owner/officer, the company will typically need to designate a Financially Responsible Officer (FRO) to assume financial responsibility.
How much can I earn as a qualifying agent?
Compensation varies by state, trade, and the terms of your specific placement agreement. Our team will discuss expected compensation with you once a potential match is identified.
What are my responsibilities once I'm placed?
Responsibilities vary by placement but generally include maintaining your license in good standing and fulfilling any obligations outlined in your qualifier agreement. Exact duties are defined in that agreement.
Can I be licensed in multiple states or trades?
Yes. Qualifiers with multiple active licenses or multi-state credentials are especially valuable in our network and often see more matching opportunities.
Is there a cost to join the network?
There is no cost to submit your application and join our qualifier database.
