The multi-page site - developed by Web design firm, Potomac Digitek, under the guidance of the MIA staff, particularly Jim Hieb, the association's director of special projects - even includes a member's forum. This new feature allows MIA members exclusive access to pose questions, express their thoughts, make suggestions, and offer ideas for other members of the association to view and contemplate.
“Our new Web site is a quantum leap over our past efforts,†said Gary Distelhorst, executive vice president of the 1,300-member group. “With the vast increase in services and products introduced by MIA in the past few years, we felt it was important to give this vital link in our communications channel a fresh new look.â€
