The former Federation of Master Organ Builders was an employers organisation, with the original intention of promoting, achieving and sustaining the highest standards in the building and care of pipe organs, an aspiration that is to be congratulated. The Incorporated Society of Organ Builders is a worldwide body for both employees and employers in Organ Building Companies, with properly examined qualification levels whose members can use letters of qualification after their names.
