National Center for Construction Education & Research
Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) are vital to NCCER's mission. Our committees are formed of industry experts to assist NCCER in development and review of curriculum, knowledge and hands-on test measurement tools, programs and resources.
Check out this video to hear current SMEs talk about what being a subject matter expert means to them, and how their service helps develop the construction industry workforce.
“It’s your chance to put knowledge on a broader table”
“I’ve developed a lot of long-term, lasting friendships”
“Being a SME and giving knowledge strengthens our workforce”
SME committees ensure our curriculum and credentialing tools are relevant to on-the-job craft skills. We recruit passionate craft professionals who commit to the following:
Attendance: Consistently attend scheduled meetings and maintain communication.
Participation: Contribute and offer feedback during meetings. If something is wrong, offer an innovative solution.
Schedule: Commit to meeting deadlines to keep projects on schedule.
SMEs are the heart of our organization, and we have multiple ways for you to get involved.
