MTI is forward thinking in the development and execution of its projects, training and networking opportunities to benefit the processing industry. Resources and professional development are nurtured through projects, which are initiated and influenced by members. As a component of MTI’s strategic direction, creating solutions and sharing all the knowledge developed with the network of members around the world is vital to the future of the processing industry.
Throughout 2023, MTI focused efforts on enhancing membership by providing more than 100 hours of global training and professional development. Our regional Technical Advisory Councils all held a special knowledge roundtable, forum, or training to increase information shared at each of their meetings throughout the year. MTI also offered its popular FRP and Dual Laminate training for members in the Middle East. And to further enhance global knowledge sharing, MTI held a virtual GlobalTAC and two webinars. MTI reached more than 600 attendees overall, and approximately 120 people attended an MTI event for the first time — a record high.
Knowledge Management projects were also a key product of 2023 — two new resources were developed and completed exclusively for members, six potential projects that focused on knowledge management formed, and the MTI Corrosion Chronicles podcast launched in June to facilitate knowledge transfer from experts throughout the industry.
It’s evident that MTI is truly A Network of Knowledge — thank you for your participation and ongoing support!
