How CQC Connects You With Vetted Companies

Watch a short walkthrough of how qualifying arrangements work, what you’re responsible for, and how licensed contractors earn recurring income through CQC.

What Is a Qualifying Arrangement?

A stream of income most licensed contractors don’t know about.

A construction company can’t hold its license or pull permits without a qualified individual serving as the responsible party. That’s the role you fill — serving as the licensed, responsible party and providing real oversight. The exact time commitment and structure depend entirely on your state — some require a set number of weekly hours or a W-2 relationship rather than a lighter-touch arrangement.

CQC is the professional channel that connects licensed contractors with vetted companies — safely and in compliance with state requirements.

Without a qualifying arrangement
Your license generates income only from the work you personally perform.
With you as a qualifier
A vetted company operates legally under your license. You provide real oversight and receive recurring compensation, direct from the company.
The CQC difference
We verify every company’s standing, insurance, and compliance before you ever see their name. Your license is protected at every step.

The Role

What being a qualifier actually involves.

Qualifier Responsibilities

Qualifier

Serve as the company’s licensed qualifying individual.

Provide the required license and qualifications for the company to operate under the applicable contractor license.

Provide technical knowledge, experience, and guidance related to the licensed work.

Oversee and supervise construction activities as required by applicable regulations.

Help ensure work is performed properly, safely, and according to applicable codes and standards.

Ensure the company performs work within the scope of its license.

Assist with licensing, compliance, and regulatory requirements.

Support the company in maintaining good standing with the applicable licensing authority.

Provide guidance regarding construction practices and project requirements.

Maintain the required professional relationship and involvement with the company while serving as its qualifier.

Before You Apply

Your licensing upkeep stays yours to handle.

đź”’ Also Yours to Handle

On top of the role above, your own licensing upkeep — fingerprinting, background checks, exams, CE credits — is tied to your personal license. The company can coordinate timing, but these steps can’t be filed or delegated on your behalf.

Common Questions

Everything qualifiers ask before signing up.

Q

What happens to my license if something goes wrong?

Every company is verified before you ever see their name. We review standing, insurance, compliance history, and active workload. You receive their full profile before any conversation happens.
Q

What does serving as the qualifier actually involve?

You provide the license and oversight the company needs to operate legally — the specific scope is defined upfront in your agreement, before you sign anything.
Q

What’s the catch? Why is it free?

No catch. CQC is paid by construction companies — not qualifiers. Companies pay a fee to access our network. You get the introduction, negotiate your own deal, and keep every dollar you earn.
Q

Can I be the qualifier for more than one company?

It depends entirely on your state. Some allow it only above a certain ownership percentage in each firm, others allow a capped number regardless of ownership, and some restrict you to one company at a time. Our matching accounts for your current engagement load, but confirm your specific state’s rules before assuming a shared arrangement is allowed.
Q

Do I need to already be assigned as a qualifier somewhere?

Not necessarily. If you’re licensed and not currently serving as the responsible party for any company, you’re exactly who these companies need.
Q

How long until I get a match?

Our average match time is 48 hours from submission. A licensing specialist reaches out same business day to verify your credentials and kick off matching.
