Confirm Details With Coordinator

Prior to Seminar:

Which job position is being analyzed? Make sure the Coordinator realizes

only 1 job position is typically analyzed at a time. A common mistake is

that the Coordinator will arrange to analyze a "crafts" job position, for

example, and will invite 1 electrician, 1 pipefitter, and 1 mechanic to

participate on the same TTJA team. This does not work well because these

are three separate job positions. Rather, the Coordinator should schedule 3

electricians to do a TTJA seminar for the "electrician" job position.

Sometimes, though, it is possible to analyze two job positions

simultaneously. This would require two separate teams and 3 Facilitators,

but they would share the same meeting room. (This works well if the

"second" team's job position is not likely to have many tasks.)

What to bring to the seminar? Refer to Segment 3, Step 1, which describes

should confirm with the Coordinator who is responsible for gathering

and taking all supplies to the seminar. The Facilitator usually brings the

supplies, participant manuals, and instructional materials. The

Coordinator is usually responsible for having "equipment" and "other"

supplies available in the meeting room. Coordinate these arrangements

with the Coordinator.
