ElectricalLicensing & Certification4HighElectrician$ implied

Traveling electrician seeking to relocate to Texas is worried about correctly documenting and verifying work hours across multiple contractors to qualify for a journeyman license, fearing hours may be lost if employers won't verify or can't be contacted.

No systematic way to ensure hours are continuously and securely documented and verified across multiple employers, especially when employers may be uncooperative or disappear; reliance on manual forms and good faith is risky.
