Welcome to the website  of the Milwaukee chapter of the Piano Technicains Guild (PTG). The PTG is a national trade
association for piano tuners that provides education in technical skills and  business development as well as resource
materials for pianists and piano teachers.

Associate membership is open to anyone with a professional or avocational interest in piano technology. The most
important thing we do is to qualify members as Registered Piano Technicians by requiring that a technician pass a
rigorous set of examinations. The RPT credential shows that the technician is ready to handle normal piano service and
repair.  

Here in Milwaukee , our chapter supports PTG goals by offering a professional peer network, technical presentations at
our monthly meetings and mentoring for Associates new to the trade.   We welcome new members of all experience
levels and hope to be a valuable resource for them in the development of their skills and businesses.

For more information about the PTG, visit our national website at

A Registered Piano Technician
(RPT) has passed a series of rigorous
examinations on the maintenance,
repair, and tuning of pianos.  Only
RPTs are authorized by The Piano
Technicians Guild to display the logo
containing the words “Registered Piano
Technician”.
An Associate is a member who has
not passed the RPT examinations.  
Associates may be studying piano
technology and working toward RPT
status, or may be piano retailers,
rebuilders, refinishers or other
specialists.
