School is Out but the MCA is in Session
Unlimited access to cleaning insights from the experts is a huge benefit when becoming an MCA member.
SHERRY STEPP, MCA PRESIDENT
Summer has officially arrived, which means schools are letting out, grads are graduating, and learning gets put on hold for a few months. However, at MCA, the education never stops. A huge benefit when becoming a member is having unlimited access to cleaning insights from the experts in cleaning. This includes our monthly webinars that are created to answer your parts cleaning needs. From vacuum degreasing best practices to understanding aqueous or discovering which solvent is right for your process, we are here to provide you with the answers (no studying required).
The best part is that when you become an MCA member, these webinars are free. And if you don’t have time to attend live or maybe want to look at previous topics, you can simply browse the Event section on our website to find what you are looking for. They are there for you to view when you are ready — it really is that easy.
If you haven’t yet, be sure to take a look at what we have to offer, get signed up, and take advantage of all the learning opportunities — minus the pop quizzes.
Stay educated and stay healthy!
