Award Criteria
The Emphasis on Education Recognition Award recognizes a die casting company that has had a specific focus on die casting education and training for their workforce. The award is chosen by NADCA Education Staff and Educational Committee Chairman. The selection criteria for outstanding contribution to the promotion of die casting education includes the number of NADCA courses held over the past year, the total number of employees exposed to the courses, and consistency in offering courses over the past three years.
Our mission is to educate and provide networking opportunities to our members and friends. We focus on three key objectives: education, enlightenment, and engagement within the die casting industry.
The purpose and objectives of the Chapter shall be as follows:
Educate, train, and recruit young people into the discipline of die-casting.
To advance the knowledge and application of the science of die casting, and to institute and participate in projects for the attainment of that result.
To accumulate and disseminate authoritative scientific information relating to the development of die casting, including the process, design, application, testing and finishing as may be available through research, field experience, and special study.
To advance the science of die casting and the utilization of die casting through education and research.
To provide, evaluate, and exchange information related to safety in the die casting industry, including its industrial hygiene, physical, and mechanical aspects.
To support and stimulate the study and development of the theory and practice of die casting and related sciences including engineering, metallurgy, physics, chemistry, and mechanics
The Chapter can manifest these objectives through the presentation of speakers on subjects of interest to the membership, social events where technical persons may be drawn together, acting as a conduit for scholarship awards, the presentation of technical seminars and other activities that may enhance the objectives of the North American Die Casting Association.
