It has been a long-time goal of the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association to develop closer relationships with the various state and area/local concrete associations around the country.  That's why we initiated our State Affiliate Program.  Now in its 4^th year, we can count 56 state and area/local associations as "partners" in this program.  While there are definite benefits for the associations themselves, what you might not realize is that the biggest benefit goes to you, our members.

Besides offering our state association partners discounts on bulk publication orders and representation on NRMCA's Board of Directors (fully ½ of NRMCA's Board of Directors is made up of individuals nominated through the State Affiliate Program), joint members of both their state association and NRMCA receive significant rebates on many of NRMCA's most popular seminars and courses.  Your rebates are based on the overall number of joint members shared by the associations or by calculating the percentage of production in a state, represented by joint members.  Rebates range from 30% to 100% of the indirect costs for eligible programs.  For example, if you are a member of NRMCA and a state affiliate organization with joint membership between 51-70%, you automatically qualify for a 45% discount of indirect costs.  To date, NRMCA has rebated nearly $123,000 back to joint members.  You don't have to do a thing.  NRMCA handles all of the registrations and automatically rebates earned discounts back to your company.  Look for State Affiliate Program information on the registration forms of eligible courses. 

So the next time you're thinking about attending an NRMCA seminar or training course, remember to check to see if your state association participates in this program – it could save you money!
