MCA Update

Greetings MCAs and MAA Members,
We’ ve officially entered the busiest season of the year! With workloads piling up, it’ s easy to let associationrelated tasks slip through the cracks. Here are a few important summer reminders to help you stay on track:
1. Submit Your 2024 Recertification Credits
Be sure your 2024 CEUs have been submitted. After September 1, any MCA who has not submitted their required credits will be subject to revocation. Log into your profile at MassArbor. org to confirm you are listed under the MCA Current group.
2. Check Your Dues or Non-Member Fees
Your recertification is not considered complete if you still owe for dues or nonmember fees. Ensure your MAA dues or nonmember fees are paid in full. Visit to review your account— if there are outstanding invoices, a blue alert will appear in the lower corner of your screen.
