Membership consists of Registered Piano Technicians (RPT) and Associate Members.  Associate Members include those who are learning the piano service trade but have not yet passed the RPT tests, and those who have some relationship to the piano service trade - movers, retail, etc., but do not service pianos.   Registered Piano Technicians have passed a set of tests encompassing basic knowledge and skills relating to the tuning and maintenance of pianos. All members, RPT and Associate, receive the Piano Technicians Journal, a monthly technical publication, and may participate in chapter and national activities at reduced rates.    In addition to receiving the Piano Technicians Journal members may maintain current profiency  by participating in local chapter monthly meetings - see PTG Pomona Valley Chapter and the Southern California Area PTG Newsletter:

These Piano Technicians Guild educational events are taught by manufacturer service and factory personnel, as well as by the finest independent instructors in piano technology.
