CALLING ALL TECHNICIANS


About Technician Affiliate Groups (TAG) by John Engelman

There is a saying that "luck is where opportunity meets preparation". A group of technicians from Southeast Wisconsin have formed a Technician Affiliate Group (WiSE TAG) affiliated with the Milwaukee Section of the American Chemical Society (ACS). The mission of a Technician Affiliate Group is to promote and broaden the knowledge of chemical technology among its members through meetings, papers, discussions and publications. Joining a TAG is a way of expanding your network, gaining recognition for your role as a technician, and becoming aware of new career opportunities. It is also a way of being associated with the ACS, the world's largest scientific society, without having to join.

There are many benefits to becoming involved with a Technician Affiliate Group:

  • Greater opportunities to develop leadership skills.
  • Increased awareness of applied chemical technology and techniques
  • Greater recognition, credibility, and visibility among peers as within the scientific community.
  • Opportunities for community contributions.
  • Greater satisfaction and self-esteem related to professional role.
  • More recognition of technical contributions.
  • Opportunities to network with people from various chemistry based careers.
