Membership
Membership
What MSCRA membership includes, who qualifies, and how it backs collision repair professionals across Utah and Colorado.
Overview
A membership built for this market
MSCRA is the trade association for collision repair in Utah and Colorado. Membership funds the association's advocacy and gives shops, technicians, and educators access to everything it builds: regulatory representation, monthly education, and a connection to SCRS at the national level.
It is built for one market. Every resource, from regulatory support to the job board, is shaped around how shops actually operate in this region rather than a national template.
Why it matters
28.3%
of all repairable claims now require ADAS calibration, and insurers routinely dispute or underpay it. Electric vehicle repairs run 46.9% higher than comparable internal-combustion repairs.
Eligibility
Who can join
Membership is open to collision repair shops, technicians, estimators, dealer body shops, and educational facilities in Utah and Colorado. Applicants must be affiliated with a collision repair shop or an educational facility, and insurance companies are not eligible.

What you get
What membership includes
Practical resources for shops working the daily realities of ADAS calibration disputes and the technician shortage.
Organized Advocacy
MSCRA documents insurer conduct and brings that record to Utah DOPL and Colorado DORA, so individual shops are not standing in front of regulators alone.
Connection to SCRS
As an SCRS Affiliate Association since March 2026, MSCRA connects members to the Society of Collision Repair Specialists, including OEM position statements and repair procedure guidance.
Monthly Webinars
Sessions built around what member shops are asking about now: ADAS calibration cost recovery, EV repair readiness, OEM parts, and technician recruitment. Recorded for the portal.
The MSCRA Member Badge
The badge in a shop's window signals membership in an organization with a direct line to the shop when a consumer concern comes in. It is an accountability layer, not a certification.
The Member Portal
Documents, meeting recordings, event registration, and the member directory, all in one place.
The MSCRA Job Board
A place for Utah and Colorado shops to post open positions and for qualified technicians, estimators, and managers to find them.
A Peer Network
Shop owners, technicians, and estimators in Utah and Colorado working through the same insurer pressure, ADAS and EV challenges, and workforce issues.
Dues
Membership dues
