How Nebraska Certified Public Accountant license verification works

A Certified Public Accountant in Nebraska is licensed by the NE Board of Accountancy. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.

`name`	Last name or declared alias matches; first name exact or nickname
`license_type`	The record is a Certified Public Accountant license, strictly (no near-miss types)
