The International Modeling and Talent Association (IMTA) is an Association of Training Centers/Agencies located throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, South America and Europe.

IMTA members include both franchised and independent centers. Membership in IMTA is available only through an application process. Membership applications are reviewed and certain professional criteria must be met to become a member of IMTA.

Some IMTA members have regularly scheduled classes while others offer special workshops/seminars for their models and talent; however, training plays a major role in the business of each IMTA member with full recognition that "training makes the difference".

Attending an IMTA Convention affords aspiring models, actors, singers and dancers a unique opportunity to showcase their potential to literally hundreds of the top fashion and talent agents, personal managers and casting directors from every major market worldwide. Fashion agents come from New York, Paris, London, Milan, Los Angeles, Miami and Tokyo to scout for new models at every New York and Los Angeles IMTA Convention. Talent agents and personal managers are invited by IMTA to discover actors and entertainers who have potential.
