MEMBER BENEFITS
MEMBER BENEFITS
Membership of the BMTA is open to all organisations associated with the measurement and testing industry, including test and calibration laboratories, Notified and Approved bodies, manufacturing companies and consultants. Membership fees are determined by the size of your organisation so that everyone is able to afford membership.
Stay abreast of and influence change in our industry
As a member of the BMTA you have the potential to influence legislation and policy that affects the industry and help lobby lawmakers. The BMTA provides representation of members’ interests to UK and EU government departments, industry committees and bodies such as UKAS.
The BMTA Council, whose members have many years’ experience within the testing and measurement community, represents members’ views and interests to the Government, UKAS and other official bodies and has a track record of achieving real change.
The BMTA works closely with bodies such as the Department of Business & Trade and the Office of Product Safety & Standards (where we are active members of the Business Reference Panel and the associated Business Accountability Forum).
Influence standards
The BMTA is a nominating body with the British Standards Institution (BSI) and membership gives you the opportunity to represent the industry on relevant BSI technical committees and influence the development of the next generation of national and international standards.
The BMTA encourages members to make their voice heard and their views known in the standards-making process.
Network and keep up to date with current trends and news
As a member of the BMTA you’ll be able to share ideas, ask questions, and play a role in determining changes and new processes in the industry. You’ll also be able to generate new contacts, clients and partners and strengthen business relationships by participating in BMTA activities.
Membership of the BMTA also offers you access to regular industry updates via our newsletter, website content and social media feeds.
Provision of training
BMTA experts provide training sessions on specialist subjects to members on an ad-hoc basis. Much of this training is designed to cater for the needs of busy professionals, so is generally arranged as online lunchtime sessions or webinars.
