Notes
New Jersey does not require a statewide individual ironworker license. The New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs licenses some construction trades but ironworkers are not specifically licensed at the individual level. Workers typically train through union apprenticeship programs with local Ironworkers unions. Verify at njconsumeraffairs.gov.
