OUR HISTORY

OUR MISSION

OUR MEMBERSHIP

Our history started in 1994 with the creation of the Bergen-Passaic Association; from there the South Jersey Association and Ocean-Monmouth Association were started. In 1997 the Northwest Jersey Association and the Union Association started, with that the executive officers of each association started to meet as a group and so the New Jersey Association of Technical Assistants was established, following quickly was the Central Jersey Association and the Northern New Jersey Association which had joined us during the spring/summer of 2005 bringing us to a total of seven (7) local associations in addition to our state association. During the economic downturn many towns consolidated and reduced hours. This had the biggest effect on the Northern New Jersey Association which after trying for several years to stay together finally dissolved. Their members that were left joined neighboring associations. So today we we stand at six (6) local associations and our State Association. We roughly have 180 members in total.
This association is organized to promote and encourage the exchange of information,education, responsibilities and professionalism of the Technical Assistant to the Construction Official.

OUR GOAL

One of our goals is to utilize some of the many benefits available to us as an ICC Chapter. Some of those advantages include having a Staff Liaison to assist us in communication with ICC Staff and the Board of Directors, encourage Chapter support and participation at all levels, attend our meetings, etc. 
Our membership is open to all Technical Assistants and/or Control Persons to the Construction Official. Your membership is paid through your dues if you belong to one of the local associations.

OUR HOPE

We hope that you will find this website as a useful tool, such as information exchange, meeting dates, regional association contacts, job postings, etc. Please contact us with any information, comments or suggestions you would like to share.

​BUILDING SAFETY CONFERENCE 2022!!!!!!!!


The 2022 Building Safety Conference of NJ will be held this year at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino from Wednesday May 4th through Friday May 6th.
 
We are excited to kick off our return to in person continuing education training during this event.  We know the past 2 years have been difficult, but the code community has worked tirelessly to ensure that New Jersey was able to continue with the construction projects that are the backbone of our State.  This will be an excellent opportunity to not only catch up on any Continuing Education that you have missed during the Pandemic but it is also a great time to get out and reconnect with others in the industry and see how they managed to deal with the many challenges that presented themselves during these unique times.
 
We will start the 39th Conference with our annual Crackerbarrel event, with approximately 40 different round tables conducted on various areas of importance to the code enforcement community. We are finalizing the list of topics and presenters and will send out a notice once completed- please keep an eye on your inbox.
 
The kickoff for the Conference will also include our very successful job fair - see representatives of our state code enforcement associations and other prospective employers seeking professionals in code enforcement!
 
Our educational programs will highlight important aspects of the overall code enforcement process and we are happy to be partnering with Rutgers to offer many exciting training opportunities.
 
Please see all the details by clicking the link below to see our brochure and be sure to reserve your room at the conference rate of $99.00 per night.  Internet reservations are preferred- there is a link inside the brochure you can use to reserve.
