Weatherization Crew Leader Job Task Analysis
In 2018, NREL's Crew Leader Scheme Committee agreed it was best practice for crew leaders to know how to do the tasks listed in the Retrofit Installer Technician (RIT) JTA before supervising RITs. Therefore, the RIT JTA has been eliminated as a stand-alone JTA, and its tasks inserted into the CL JTA.
