who we are
MCMA works with multiple training providers to provide a channel for mechanics into professional courses, supported by manufacturers.
Annual membership fees include a contribution to the costs of these courses to assist in ongoing professional development.
As membership grows we do expect to be lobbying for better recognition with OFQUAL, better input with the large manufacturers, and input to government via trade bodies on legislation, with particular reference to E bikes.
