Three Ways to Become Involved in Code Association
Activities
|
1. Application for a position on the TBOA Board
The Tennessee Building Officials Association
(TBOA) has membership requirements that are inclusive: if you
live in Tennessee and work with Codes you are probably eligible.
Here you will meet many of the people from other jurisdictions in
Tennessee that perform work similar to yours. Regardless of
your experience, serving on the TBOA Board increases your
understanding of the codes process (the big picture), your role in
the codes process (the specific picture), and raises your
professionalism and your professional credibility to a new level.
You will form professionally supportive friendships that will last
the rest of your life. Visit
www.tboa.net for membership information and forms.

2. Application to serve ICC Committees
Serving on the International Code Council (ICC)
Committees puts you in touch with people performing work similar to
yours from around the country. This too is a very broadening
experience. And it puts you in position to effect
change, to let you see you can make a difference.

3. How to submit code changes to ICC
In your experience you have no doubt occasionally
questioned a code reference for clarity - or found yourself in
honest disagreement with the apparent intent. Submitting your
ideas in the proper form is another important way to share your
experience and insights, effect change and make a difference.
If ever we find the form on the
ICC web site we will provide it here along with instructions -
