Nebraska does not license appliance repair technicians at the state level; contractors working on other people's property register with the Department of Labor, and trade licenses such as plumbing are handled by cities and villages. Source: Nebraska Department of Labor: Who Needs to Register
In Nebraska, you can check a license with the Nebraska Department of Labor contractor registration (Search Registered Contractors and Subcontractors) or report a problem to the Nebraska Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
