What the Nevada data shows for Roofers

Nevada sets the entry bar for roofers at board-approved training and a passing score on a state-approved exam. The credential is administered under Nevada's licensing regime, which classifies the training track as "Experience/Apprenticeship".

The initial price tag is $150 every 2 years. Continuing education is not a listed requirement for this profession in Nevada, so the annualized maintenance burden is lower than in states that mandate ongoing hours.

There's no published reciprocity list here - Nevada reviews out-of-state credentials individually.
