MBA ACT MEMBER SERVICES TEAM – the additional tools for your organisation’s ‘toolbox’
Master Builders ACT (MBA ACT) provides a range of important services to its members. From industry specific advice (IR, Legal and WHS) through to training courses and other membership incentives, such as vehicle and other special discounts as well as advocating for the ACT building and construction industry. In the previous edition of Canberra Builder, Ashlee Berry – Member Services Director, encouraged members to reach out an utilise the services offered by MBA ACT. It’s encouraging to see that members have contacted MBA ACT and have been engaging with MBA ACT through the appropriate channels to stay informed and up to date in the industry. The purpose of providing our range of services, is to support you (our members) in your day-to-day operations, to lobby for those things that are important to you and to provide avenues for training, networking events, recognition of excellence and other support that non-members do not have access to. The Member Services Team encourages you to think of them (and of course MBA ACT) as a useful tool in your organisation’s toolbox for advice, training and events, noting that they are ever a phone call or an email away.
Recently, MBA ACT have looked into other ways that it can add value to your membership, and we are pleased to advise you that in the near future we will be able to provide an expanded range of legal services.

MASTER BUILDERS ASSOCIATION NEWS EDITION 3 2020
As a result of the unprecedented events of 2020, the Member Services Team has quickly adapted to the changes required by law and has maintained is efficiency in providing guidance and support to MBA members, all whilst having to adapt these changes themselves. Events such as member workshops (the Survive and Thrive series) and Sector Council meetings/updates, are now being delivered through virtual Outlook Team meetings. This allows more MBA members to virtually attend the event from their home, office or wherever they are at the time. We encourage MBA members to get involved in your relevant Sector Council meetings where possible – your presence at these meetings allows us to hear your voice, so that we can represent you on the policy issues that are important to you and our industry. Recently, MBA ACT have looked into other ways that it can add value to your membership, and we are pleased to advise you that in the near future we will be able to provide an expanded range of legal services. Keep an eye on the Member Updates for further information about this new service – which will be another important tool to add to your organisation’s toolbox.
Making a case for small businesses. Affordable legal representation for MBA members coming soon.
