Industry Recognition Program
From late 2019 all electrical contractors whom join MEA will have their membership upgraded and be recognised as a Bronze Master Electrician. When you reach your 10th year of membership you’ll be upgraded to become a Silver Master Electrician, ultimately becoming a Gold Master Electrician when you achieve 20 years membership. Being recognised as a Bronze, Silver or Gold Master Electrician does not impact membership pricing.
Master Program pricing is based on the size of your business (excluding office and part-time staff), and is available in either monthly instalments or annually. MEA membership and ME Safety is included in the Master Program pricing.
