Welcome to the PTC. The Probabilistic Technology Community is a society of professionals in business, industry, government, and academia interested in learning about, promoting, and using probabilistic technology.

Mission and Vision:

1. Promote the use and further development of probabilistic technology.
Probabilistic technology has been around for decades. The time has come for all industries, businesses, universities, and government agencies to take advantage of probabilistic technology. The PTC will help light the way.

2. Provide education in probabilistic technology.
As expected, academia has been more proactive in using probabilistic technology than those outside the universities. However, millions of individuals have graduated from our universities with no exposure to probabilistic technology at all. Thus, another goal of the PTLC is to promote development of educational materials and educational forums where the professionals already in the work force can learn the skills needed to use probabilistic technology.

3. Develop standards for implementation of probabilistic technology.
The PTC is working with ASQ to develop nationally and internationally accepted standards for the use of probabilistic technology. This will include standards for validation and verification of models used in probabilistic analysis.

4. Provide liaison with other organizations regarding probabilistic technology.
The PTC is establishing contacts with numerous professional societies, universities, government agencies, companies, and Congress in order to promote probabilistic technology. The PTC supports legislation that supports the PTC mission.

The PTLC's agenda is implemented by the PTC Board of Directors and various committees. By becoming a member, you gain access to education and articles on probabilistic technology, and opportunities to network with others. By becoming a member of one of the PTC committees, you can make a difference.
