The Rock River Valley Tooling & Machining Association (RRVTMA), the Stateline’s chapter of the NTMA, is excited to announce the launch of its newly redesigned official website. The updated site offers members and the local manufacturing community a more intuitive, personalized, and visually dynamic online experience.
Key Features of the New Website:
- Streamlined Navigation & Modern Layout — Quickly access information about membership, apprenticeships, scholarships, events, and more through a clean, user-friendly design.
- Enhanced Resources — Find up‑to‑date news, event details, and announcements. Upcoming programming is easy to find and register for. And now, member companies can submit corporate news and press releases to be featured on RRVTMA’s news page.
- Apprenticeship & Workforce Focus — The site prominently features RRVTMA’s apprenticeship training, membership opportunities, and scholarship programs—central to the association’s mission of investing in workforce development. A streamlined new digital apprenticeship application portal is easier for prospective students, sponsoring companies, and RRVTMA administrators alike.
- Updated Member Directory & Contact Areas — Member and associate company information is more accessible, offering better opportunities for networking within the region’s precision manufacturing community.
“This redesigned site reflects our renewed commitment to connect our member companies—tool and die shops, contract machinists, precision manufacturers, and more—with the tools and community they need to thrive,” said RRVTMA Director of Public Relations Jared Lyford. “Careers in the trades and manufacturing deserve to be more than afterthoughts. Our website, how we connect with members and students and the greater community, must align with that as well.”
