NFRC Volunteer Leadership - a GUIDE:

NFRC relies heavily on the support of Volunteer Leadership from the stakeholders in the energy/fenestration industry.  NFRC meetings at every level from full membership meetings to the smaller task group meetings can only be truly successful with the cooperation of the volunteer Chairs of our Committees, Subcommittees and Task Groups.

Please note below important GENERAL Requirements of Chairs within the NFRC organization.  Also noted below are the upcoming deadlines (jump to deadlines) for the next NFRC Membership Meeting.

 

Staff Liaisons -

The NFRC headquarter's staff are here to assist you to achieve your group's goals.    If we can be of any service (including conference call requests) - please contact your committee liaison as listed below (subject to change):

  • Technical Committee: including all subcommittees and task groups. (Scott Hanlon)
