Hands-on Skills Assessment
Candidates have two options to complete this assessment:
Option 1: Contract a Qualified Assessor to conduct the assessment on a mockup. Qualified Assessors are roof system experts, independently contracted by installerd and/or roofing contractord to administer hands-on performance exams. Find an approved Qualified Assessor.
Option 2: The installer submits video and pictures of him or her performing specific tasks on a job or mockup via an app (NRCA will provide a link to the app). NRCA will send the submission to a Qualified Assessor, an independent roof expert, to review and score the installer’s submitted work.
