MMCA members are now in HIGH demand by employers. Soon, we are hoping that
most employers ask ,as a prerequisite to employment, that a Captain be a member of MMCA. Many Captain's
are calling for an end to "paper captains". These unprofessional Captain's with minimal skills
and training ARE effecting YOUR pay scale. They also create a danger to public safety.
MMCA is made up SOLELY of volunteer local Captain's who have looked at the issues facing local Captain's
including the current pay scale, professionalism, the public perception of Captain's and more.
The MMCA is setting the NEW standard for all of these issues.
