Notes
Tennessee does not require a statewide individual ironworker license. The Tennessee Board for Licensing Contractors licenses contractors but does not issue individual ironworker trade licenses. Workers typically train through union apprenticeship programs. Verify at tn.gov/commerce/boards/contractors.
