MEMBER BENEFITS
Industry Representation
Mandated by the need for more young people to seek careers in the precision metalworking industry, TDMAW worked with the NTMA and AMBA Milwaukee Chapters to form the Wisconsin Precision Metalworking Council (WPMC). The WPMC is also a collective voice to address State legislators. The WPMC represents over 6,000 employees in 200 companies.
Insurance - As an association member you are eligible for our group health, property and liability, and worker's compensation coverage programs available through Federated Insurance. The most significant factor for working with Federated, is that each program offers excellent service and quality coverage backed by competitive pricing (get a quick quote). Please see page on group insurance.
Group Partners - There are a number of Group Buying Partners (local companies) that give substantial discounts to TDMAW Members.
Member Directories - In addition to our online listing member information is available in our printed directory. The printed directory details members' shop capabilities for enhanced networking opportunities and is available to members only.
Management & Employee Training - TDMAW offers educational courses specifically geared for our industry. Since 1997, we have held a number of courses for members at substantially reduced rates. Watch our newsletter for future training.
Scholarships - TDMAW is pleased to offer two scholarship options to assist students enrolled in a Machine Tool Operations Program or Tool & Die Program at any accredited Wisconsin technical college. These scholarships are sponsored by TDMAW Group Buying Partners: E.L. Simeth Company and MSC Industrial Supplies. For more information on scholarship opportunities click here.
Monthly Meetings - Take advantage of networking opportunities with like companies during our social hour. Following cocktails, choose from three full dinner offerings. See our calendar for upcoming events.
Post Holiday Party - In January of each year we sponsor a Post Holiday Party for members and their spouses to enjoy an evening of dining & dancing.
June Outing - In June of each year we host an outing where members choose between golf and Lake Michigan fishing. The committee works very hard to make this outing one to rival any other, so there are always ample door prizes at the dinner following the day's events. .
Summer Outing - This out takes place in August each year. Join us for a fun, casual outing. Attendance is open to members, member representatives, employees, families, friends, and Group Buying Partners, Sponsors and their guests.
