Top 10 Reasons To Join MCAA
The Mason Contractors Association of America is the national trade association representing masonry contractors. From industry legislation to training and education, discover the valuable benefits of membership in the MCAA:1. To support your profession
The MCAA is here to support your profession. We fight for fair and friendly building codes and standards on behalf of all mason contractors and designers. We are active leaders involved in such code arenas as the IBC (International Building Codes), MSJC (Masonry Standards Joint Committee), the ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) and the ASCE (American Society of Civil Engineers). No other national association strictly represents the interests of mason contractors in these groups.
2. Recognition
You're able to gain national recognition (via the website, print media, etc.) through an industry leader.
3. Networking and career advancement
The MCAA provides numerous opportunities for networking and career advancement throughout the year including at the annual MCAA Convnetion and MCAA Midyear Meeting.
4. Representation and advocacy in Washington, D.C.
Dues support a full time staff acting as your advocate in Washington DC. They represent your interests and our industry in helping to pass favorable legislation. They also work hand-in-hand with OSHA on your behalf to negotiate fair and reasonable working guidelines and regulations.
5. Continuing Education and Certification
As a member, you've taken one step further towards increasing the level of professionalism in your organization and allowing your company to stand out.
