Energy Auditor Job Task Analysis

The Energy Auditor (EA) is an experienced professional who evaluates the potential health and safety issues, durability, comfort, and energy use of a residential building. The EA conducts advanced
diagnostic tests, gathers and analyzes data, and creates energy models to draw conclusions and
make recommendations for improvements.

A Job Task Analysis (JTA) is the foundation for a valid credentialing program and identifies the core knowledge areas, critical work functions, and/or skills typically found across a representative sampling of
current practitioners. Empirical results from a JTA provide examinees and the public with a valid, reliable, fair, and realistic assessment that reflects the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to competently perform a job.
